Before the F1 race on Saturday Felipe Massa said that he would be willing to let Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso win the race if that's what it came down to.

According to a report from TSN, if Massa had let Alonso pass him (or if any other driver allowed a teammate to pass in order to win the race) to win, he could have been facing jail time.
