"What has democracy done for this country"
That explains why more and more GPs are heading to countries with less then democratic governments, they stand in the way of him makign even more money. I cant respect people whose sense of reality is so removed from the rest of us. If boycotting the sport saw Max and Bernie out on the street begging for their meals then i would love to do it |

Even if it's to wind people up, there's some things you just don't say. As I have said, we have a sport run by fascists - if we didn't, he would be filling in the resignation form right now, as his colleagues would force him to stand down.

Come on Bernie do something. How's possible to a man that owns more money than he's able to expend to watch people dying of starvation and yet criticise others ? |

It is a known fact that Bernie wants FOM to write the technical regulations, not FIA. So if his ridiculous and tasteless remarks are a hint at him wanting to run for FIA president, it might not even be in owner CVC's interest to replace him because of said remarks.
It's just grumpy old men, I guess. |

It's interesting to note how the BBC have reported nothing of this, either on the television news or their news website, when this story has been carried by every national news paper and ITN/Channel 4 News. Are they frightened Bernie might take away their recently aquired televising of Grand Prix racing?
However what's more surprising about the whole thing, is Bernie Ecclestone is Jewish. |

I know that Bernie started, and (still) he's F1 related, but I don't see any point to keep commenting about this.
Sorry guys. Edit:Sorry, it's not closed anymore. My bad... Last edited by Bononi; 7 Jul 2009 at 14:35. |

Stephen Pollard of the Jewish Chronicle: "Ecclestone is either an idiot or morally repulsive. Either he has no idea how stupid and offensive his views are or he does and deserves to be held in contempt by all decent people"
