2008 Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton is the latest driver to express dismay over the recent decisions taken by the FIA with regard to the points systems and proposed budget caps in 2010 and beyond."I think it's a shame what's happening to Formula One," Hamilton began in a statement.
"It's hard to believe that these recent decisions will improve things for the trackside spectators and TV viewers, who should always be our number-one priority, but I guess we'll have to wait and see."
"Whatever the points system, I know that all Formula One drivers will always race our hearts out."
The Formula One Teams Association recently unveiled its own proposals for the future of the sport, a fact not lost on the McLaren Mercedes star.
"For the first time in recent years we have the teams, drivers, sponsors and fans all working together for the good of our sport - now we just need the governing bodies to listen to us and help us," he said.
"Formula One is the pinnacle of motorsport and that's what we all love about it; we should all be working together to maintain that."
Hamilton joins Michael Schumacher, Fernando Alonso and Jarno Trulli to publically hit out at the under-fire FIA.
