I'd like to file a infield fly or clipping suit and maybe in Europe, a yellow/red card suit
And can you have a "grave" violation? That doesn't sound like proper usage of the word. You can have grave consequences, but a grave violation?

They do have business contracts filed in various countries (usually France for FIA related stuff). The violation of which will incur financial penalties. I don't know why they'd call it "competition law" unless France has something on the books specifically for these types of contracts.
But either way, Ferrari and both Red Bull teams (IIRC) signed contracts w/ the FIA/Bernie through 2012 that they'll be violating by jumping ship. I guess their counter argument is that the FIA already violated the contract by acting unilaterally in the decision to impose spending caps.
