Is there NOTHING B.E would not stoop to??!!!!
OK ,this is it,i have now-officially completely given up on seeing formula one do anything right ever again.
My one true hope was that the threatened GPWC would usher in a new start.New administration,new rules. The most detestable politition in the world gone and never telling f1 what it must do anymore.Imagine that.. The most disgusting low life scum gone and never again taking everything of everyone claiming it's his.Wouldn't life be good... But now i see the plan--bernie want's to buy ferrari(he may allready have 33%).Why?There is only ONE possible reason-to gain control of the leading (and only important)manufacturer in the GPWC group.With ferrari in his pocket,bernie and max will continue doing what the like for as long as they like. And we will have no say in the matter(again) |

I think you'rs right, Sato san. Max is the one that comes up with the lunatic ideas.
The good part of Bernie owning a share of Ferrari would be that he could stop them doing what they did in Austria and at Indy this year. A nod is as good as a wink from the guy who writes the big cheques. |

Some people might consider this conspiracy theory stuff, especially considering the source, but I think its a good read about who really runs the "show". |

At least Bernie likes racing. It's Max who's decided upon Grooved tyres, narrow track cars and other such wonders.

Max is to blame. Someone has to run against him to put F1 on the right 'track'.

Ferrari are owned by FIAT who are in financial trouble and will probably merge with GM if anybody. Why not sell Ferrari off to Bernie, he can afford it. Wonder if he will do what he did to Brabham?
Where does he get the money from? Get yourself elected to the FIA with your mate Max. Then alocate ALL comercial rights to Bernie for a hundred years; this is if the papers are to be believed for about £5M. Bernie sells off the telivision rights for hundreds of millions to a TV company for such a high figure they go bust. But of course Bernie is still in charge. Dear Bernie was critisised for trying to buy a knighthood or buying influence over Tobacco advertising - take your pick of which Journalist you believe! But at one million pounds a week he then critisised Damon for going to Arrows for an extra £2M a YEAR (and putting his reputation and neck on the line). Now Mr Richards has the Rally rights for 100 years, cost peanuts. Resold to world TV for a fortune. Bernie likes racing? May I suggest that protecting his 100 year investment is a potentially greater driving force. Think if all that money generated by F1 from the TV companies and sponsers had been directed to improving circuits, facilities and issuing marshals with overalls and equipment. Surely the money should not be subcontracted, but stay with the FIA for the benefit of the sport. Have I been misled in the above opinions by malicious journalists who have a vendetor against our beloved Bernie and Max? |

Max Mosley is just Bernie's rubber stamp in the FIA. These two go back along way. Max was engineered into the FIA so that Bernie could get anything he wanted rubber stamped without too much hassle. Bernie is the The Man in this business. Nothing happens without him saying so.
