Earlier today a rumor surfaced that J-Sport BRM would withdraw from the 2016 MF1 season in protest.

BREAKING: BRM planning to withdraw from 2016 season in protest against FIA President — ModelF1 Magazine (@MF1Magazine) November 13, 2015

BRM will race in 2016

We reached out to J-Sport BRM Principal /u/JoeyBACON to clarify the situation. The TP was quick to dismiss the rumor. “BRM isn’t boycotting the 2016 season, that’s complete bullshit. BRM is still a dedicated team and we will be racing in 2016, no matter what happens.”

Planned boycott of Brazilian GP canceled

Following altercations between the BRM Principal and /u/Latorata, who is now under a week long ban, the team sought support for a joint boycott of the upcoming race, but have since made it known that no such action would be taken.

“We were going to boycott the Brazilian GP, but with the help of Lotus we realized that was childish and stupid.”

J-Sport BRM Principal focusing on the future

Following the heated discussions going on recently, Team Principal /u/JoeyBACON is keen to put it all behind him and focus on the future success of his team and that of Model F1.

“I look forward to putting all of this behind us and going on with a fresh, better Model F1.”

With the MFIA stepping in to moderate the conflict and exacting both a warning and a ban respectively, the remaining teams have expressed their hopes that the situation will now be resolved and left in the past.
