Not sure what is FIA's exact role in the meetings other than some representative(s) being there, but according to
this ACO "will be responsible for the sporting, technical, marketing and communications operations" and ACO is also the promoter.
I also see it as a plus that FIA just seems to be more transparent and objective. FIA may be French, but not as French as ACO.

I wouldn't be surprised if the new regulations do get postponed, considering the relationship between the ACO and FIA.

WEC itself is a proof that the relationship must be better than ever.
