Aug.1 (GMM) An FIA vice-president has questioned Max Mosley's decision to send the espionage investigation involving McLaren to the Court of Appeal.



Carlos Gracia, who is president of the Spanish automobile federation (Real Federacion Espanola de Automovilismo), told the newspaper Diario As that he was surprised when he heard Tuesday's news.



"The truth is that I had hoped that the FIA would not question the decision of the World Council, but I would like more details from Max Mosley before announcing an opinion," he said.



"What is clear is that all of this controversy is not good for the image of the organisation."
