F1 braced for FIA's Indy punishment

World governing body the FIA will hand down their verdict on the Indianapolis debacle in Paris tomorrow, with Formula One braced for a backlash if seven teams are dealt a harsh punishment.

The seven teams hauled before the FIA’s world motorsport council – Renault, McLaren, Williams, Toyota, Red Bull, Sauber and BAR – are charged with bringing the sport into disrepute for refusing to race at Indianapolis on June 19.
