Max Mosley will resign the F.I.A.

For me it doesn't matter, this change. I'm sure that who will replace him, will have the same flavour.

Would be nice if Ari Vatenen took over the helm!

Goodbye Max you decrepit old twit.

Milk instead of Champagne in podium ceremonies? :p

Yes, why not? He's in finn parlament as KKK, isn't? So I think that he's able to manage that kind of play that take part in the meetings with FOTA, ISC or whatever.

Whoever it is surely can't be any worse than Max, can it? Somebody who will stand up to Bernie - as since Max has been in power all the rival series to F1 have gone to pot - WSC, WRC, WTCC, etc

If you take his whole career as FIA president, Mosley was hardly an improvement over Balestre.
The name that sings around a lot is Jean Todt. That is one guy who knows his way around all of motorsports, but at the same time in bed with F1.

No he is not in Finnish parlament nor is KKK. Vatanen was in European Parlament but was elected from France. He tried to get in Europen Parlament this year from Finland but wasn't elected. Nor was KKK before.

Jean Todt as replacement of Mosley ???? :)


After all he has knowledge in many motorsports(F1, rally, rally-raid, endurance) ;)

This will be an interesting one. Am I totally wrong if I've understood that from FOTA, the support is for Vatanen due Todt's former strong relationship with Ferrari ??

Vatanen would be ideal choise but I'm not sure if he as capable for the job as Todt is... I mean, I trust Todt would get the job done. Vatanen might not.

It's a precarious position to juggle between different sports, manufacturers, national interests and fans. Whoever will take up the job will get his share of dirt flung at him quite soon. Mark my words.
