I certainly don't live or hail from the Land of the Free, however I wonder whether an American court would be able to hear such a lawsuit as it is the FIA that issues F1 licences (or whatever) to the teams and the FIA are firmly entrenched and based in the EU.
And do not forget that the EU commissioners have already looked into the FIA and FOM relationship, which was the reason that Mosley "sold" the commercial arm, i.e. FOM, to Mr E many years ago. And that appears to have satisfied the EU.
