I've tried pointing out in the past that the FIA actually have very little to do with the day to day operations of the WEC. Everyone who has a hand in running it and goes on record are people who are ACO big wigs. Even Lindsey Owen Jones might have FIA in his title, but he's actually employed by the ACO.
And in the DSC article about the future of the WEC, he's the only one who's gone on record suggesting that what the ACO did with LMP1 rules was probably a mistake.
The FIA only have their name on it because it's required that they endorse a World Championship and because Jean Todt saw the original WSC's demise and wanted to stick it to Mosley, Balestre and Eccostone.
