...but we won't know who for 2-3 years.
And he doesn't rule out sporting sanctions. But I don't see how they are possible anyway.
This is basically the same thing he said late last year.
Except I didn't know this part:
"We have got criminal proceedings against 17 individuals in Germany, we've got defamation actions in Germany, France and Italy. And in Italy the defamation actions are an adjunct to criminal proceedings, which of course are in the hands of prosecuting authorities."
If this whole scenario is true, and their is an Indiviual from f1 that instigated this. I hope they nail The Crumb-Bum
This is why he has to go, he was in the wrong yet still won't admit to it. Give it a rest.
He was in the "wrong" according to who?Quote:

Suggesting that he could hand out sporting sanctions is completely wrong. Whoever it was, penalising them or their team is just daft, this is a personal matter simple as.
"Set-up" suggests he was coerced into doing something he wouldn't normally be doing.Quote:

Ok, I'll re-phrase that......Quote:

Note - What he actually did isn't the same as what was reported by Fleet Streets finest (sic).
Mosely is a very slick operator and a very dangerous man to make an enemy of, so if it were me that had "set him up" i`d be papping meself right now :P
Now, i have to agree with Tamburello about fleet streets reporting, but i would still think that Mr Mosely, being a prominent public figure, could perhaps have been a little more careful in choosing his pass-times?
All in all i think the whole affair has been somewhat shameful but i dont neccessarrilly (just how DO you spell that word?) think that Mr Mosely is to blame. One, poor decision and some shock reporting shouldnt be allowed to put a blemish on what has been a great career.
BTW, despite my pathetic post count, i read this forum almost daily, and have had many privare giggles over the blatant favoutism to various teams that goes on, especially as we all know that Ferrari cheats all the time and Ukyo Katayama was the greatest driver that ever lived :)
No.Quote:

I would take that as a threat to that individual, these people may well know what they're doing so, well the truth might not be public for years if they can get it done privately obviously.
Dirty Den is now semi retired, so best let it go Max...
Man, that is just sweet , 10 out of 10 for humour :)Quote:

Totally agree.Quote:

They should be truly ashamed.
:dozey: Hhmmm... poor ole Max gets caught with his pants down...
Bribes his way into remaining in office...
and now wants to bring the culprit to justice.
:p : Maybe the teams should pony up the $$$ to solve the case....
;) Buy Max a mirror !!!

So the Mosley bashing is on again?!
Nice to see what people are interested most in F1, the color of the cars, of the tires and the private life of those involved. :rolleyes:
Didn't notice you saying that when you were in full anti-Max bash-mode when the story broke.Quote:

Being President of the FIA... makes this an "invasion of privacy" issue !!!
Either way:
Any reputable organization would have forced him out of office for failing to meet "The morals clause" .
No "entrapment" was involved, this was a self inflicted situation.
Once it became known to the public, this type of deviate sexual behavor, would normally result in either a resignation or dismissal.
:D Oh, and most of us sleep very well at night, thanks for asking.
:p : Only you Trolls seem to have trouble getting a good night's sleep !!!
Don't make fun of his epiphany . It's cruel .Quote:

Is this — i.e. holding an opinion different to your own — genuinely something that should make one 'truly ashamed'? You are blowing it out of all proportion.Quote:

I will not be sad to see him retire/step down/overthrown... but not by means of a grubby scandal peddling rag and a convicted cheat of a team principle (assuming it is who we think it is)
I personally don't indulge in the kind of sexual activity Max does... but I believe it involved Adults and was (or should have been) conducted in private... so none of my business
They real victim is Max' wife

i Suggest we open a new sport instead - Balestre Bashing!
I think that's the way most of us feel.Quote:

I think that a lot of people view this sort of behaviour as unacceptable but then, as long as it's behind closed doors with consenting adults, then that's that.
However, In general I think Max is damaging for Motorsport and this scandle further brings his office into disrepute whether rightly or wrongly.
Whilst I think the games Maxie played with those hookers are disgusting, I don`t in any way think that that should mean he can`t be the president of FIA.Quote:

The people he must deal with mostly think of him as some sort of pervert, a subject of humour, lacking in moral fibre or a bit sad. That must call his suitability to represent the FIA into question.
Well, I find it hard to look at him now and not laugh, I just get these mental images that I really would prefer not to get. But that would not mean he is not capable of doing the job.Quote:

I think the 'subject of humour' bit is probably the most important. Once someone becomes a figure of fun then, rightly or wrongly, it is very hard to recover from it.Quote:
