He is the top cop, perception of being in any teams pocket is bad for the game.
Checo needs to step up, otherwise Bottas could be a good pairing for Max. He would bring significant intel from Merc.

I've always said that Masi is the wrong person to be director of races, everything he does seems always to favor merc,advising stewards in giving the minimum penalty for Hamilton in such cases as happened at silverstone.
Ferrari have now come up and gave some support of continuing to having petitions in such cases and having a more objective outlook than the lukewarm one shown by the gov'g body so far. Other teams should follow suit also instead of keeping quiet out of fear especially customer teams that use Merc engines.
