Rotation system axedF1`s governing body has appointed a permanent chief steward to officiate at Grand Prix.
Amid calls for greater transparency and more consistent decision-making, Britain`s Tony Scott-Andrews will fill the new FIA role, replacing the old system of four rotating stewards.
Scott-Andrews, a lawyer, told the Daily Telegraph newspaper that the system should bolster consistency in steward decision-making, and he expects to `have a greater awareness of the global scene` than any temporary chief steward.
He has been a F1 steward for four years.
