The Australian will be succeeding Neil Crompton, who left the post on June 30 this season. The Supercars Commission governs the technical and sporting rules in the Aussie category with its recommendations then going to the Board for final approval. Having said that, fans are unhappy with the former F1 race director getting another role in motorsports. Here are some of the reactions from the fans: "So that means we can rule out a Lewis Hamilton to Supercar switch" Dennis Broekhart@Broekie83@Motorsport So that means we can rule out a Lewis Hamilton to Supercar switch5@Motorsport So that means we can rule out a Lewis Hamilton to Supercar switch "Who would take him seriously" Kosy@19kosy@Motorsport Who would take him seriously@Motorsport Who would take him seriously "You can bet that series will go to pot now." punk and race cars@punk_racecars@Motorsport You can bet that series will go to pot now.1@Motorsport You can bet that series will go to pot now.

Michael Masi s last role as F1 race director did not end well Michael Masi's last role as the F1 race director did not work out as well as he would have thought. The Australian's peculiar manner in which he ended the safety car period at the 2021 Abu Dhabi GP resulted in the F1 title being virtually handed over from Lewis Hamilton to Max Verstappen on the very last lap. After copious outrage on social media, Masi subsequently found himself out of the race director's role for the 2022 season. What's your favorite race of the 2022 season so far?
