Bernie Ecclestone, the FIA, and Formula 1 have been granted an appeal against the verdict to allow Felipe Massa's £64 million court case to go to full trial by the UK Supreme Court.

In October 2025, Massa attended a three-day hearing at London's High Court, with RacingNews365 present throughout, as he sought to take former F1 CEO Ecclestone, F1's governing body the FIA, and FOM itself to trial to seek damages over the handling of crashgate in 2008.
