Another question which the World Council failed to address was whether or not there would be any public sanction against the stewards at Jerez, who had dismissed the Schumacher-Villeneuve incident, which, has been claimed, was a dereliction of their duty.
Outra cuestión que o Consello Mundial non tivo en conta foi a existencia ou non de ningunha sanción pública contra os comisarios de Xerez que desestimaran o incidente entre Schumacher e Villeneuve, que segundo se alegou, foi un incumprimento do seu deber.
