Max Mosley is confident the International Automobile Federation (FIA) will successfully come through Tuesday's court action brought against them by Ferrari.

It was revealed on Friday that the Italian manufacturer are seeking an injuction in a French court agains the FIA's planned 2010 regulations.

Ferrari had announced their intentions to quit Formula One at the end of the 2009 season if a budget cap is introduced into the sport.

The proposal, which will see teams limited to spending £40 million, is feared by some teams to lead to the creation of a two-tier Championship.

Ferrari believe Mosley's FIA is breaking the veto agreement that they have with motorsport's governing body over F1's technical regulations.

However, the 68-year-old feels the team's option to veto is no longer in place.

"We will say first of all it is no longer in place and if they wanted to do a veto - they were in the (FIA) meeting on March 17 and they should have done it there if they didn't agree. Instead, they just sat there," said Mosley.

"Anyway, it will be our contention that they walked away from that agreement some time ago."
