It works in the same way that Raikkonen's speeding fine/penalty at Monza was not an issue for the police. This is why F1 has a governing body, and the only way police have an automatic right to be involved, is if a death has occured at a race track.... :)
Really??? In the words of the infamous McEnroe, "Are you serious?"
I can list the following for you to deliberate on:
1. Race fixing,
2. Deliberately causing a crash which could endanger the lives of the driver, marshals, and spectators.
In fact, I could go as far as to say this has nothing to do with any FIA investigation as the FIA has offered to give Pat Symonds immunity, while the police in Singapore sure as heck do not have to obvserve this at all.
Now if you think that is not reason for a police investigation anywhere in this world, then please tell us why.
