Mercedes win in France (for now)

The Conseil d'Etat sided with Daimler against the French ban on sales of four models with arguably illegal refrigerant in the AC system. The victory is only temporary, though, and lasts while the judges give the matter some more thought. However, they did express the view that there was "serious doubt" about the legality of the French government's move. Read the Press Release here and the full judgment here. I'll be practising my French on them tomorrow, and it might be worth coming back to this blog after that - there will surely be more to say, though whether I can work out what it is remains to be seen.
