My word. I don't think Todt has ever received a better endorsement.

I know which I would rather govern the direction of the sport.

Bernie has done wonders for the Commercial side but he really should think about letting someone else take the reins. He's becomming quite out of touch with reality these days.

Bernie & Todt? Five more of them and you could stage a pantomime.

No thanks, just one of his press releases would be so childish................

I guess Bernie's state of mind is deteriorating exponentially nowadays.
One day he will regret it, but hey the sooner someone kicks him out the better for F1 and what it's left of it.

One has to wonder what CVC thinks of this latest outburst.

They'll be loving it.

You have to remember there's a raison d'etre to the things he says.

The gist of Bernie's latest outburst: "Todt, you need a kick up the backside to make F1 the centre of attention"; great for Bernie but not for motorsport as a whole IMHO.

That is like just getting rid of a really bad case diarrohea and then taking a huge amount of laxatives to make it never comes back again. Considering the personalities of Bernie and Luca, my comparison was probably far too kind.

Which shows that Jean is doing a good job in his role of FiA President. The previous incumbent spent far too much time on F1, as a result other series were allowed to whither, which of course benefitted F1 & Bernie.
