"According to Bild newspaper, however, Ecclestone might actually be Fabiana’s ‘bad boy’ because Formula 1 teams are angry with him about the unfair distribution of revenue under the new financial arrangements.

Struggling Lotus, however – although with only a few less points than Ferrari in 2013 – gets no such appearance bonus, according to Auto Motor und Sport"
