Whats are your thoughts on Bernie stating he would happily step down to bring in Audi to F1?

I'd burn 100,000.02 USD if it meant Bernie stepping down,
with or without Audi

Another bluff. Bernie will leave when his health is gone.

And after watching some of the Silverstone endurance racing, I'm not sure we want Audi in F1. They might put a hurt on some of the big teams! Those cars were amazing, and a good display how a more opened up set of rules can result in some great on track action!

Never going to happen. He has F1 in the palm of his hand. He and his cronies are making millions.

Bernie - you let Monza drop and I'm done. No one cared about Magny-Cours and no one cares about the stunted Hockenheimring nor the Nurburgring.
Everyone cares about Monza!

It's about time VW came in. If nothing else we need another engine manufacturer in F1.

I wonder which of their many brands they would choose to use?

Sure, he'd leave to get VAG/Audi in (although I think they have more than enough to keep them occupied right now... including a good shareholder/boardroom showdown). And once they'd devoted resources to an F1 program, just like a bad penny, within a year or so, Barney the Dinosaur would be right back... to save the sport from whatever made up scenario he and the CVC boys could dream up.

Sure, burn however much you want, just make sure we're paid first.

If Bernie's saying he'll quit to get Audi into F1 it's because he knows Audi have no interest in entering the sport. The guy is the ultimate car salesman who will try an sell us a shit sandwich and convince us it tastes good. The guy will die in the job before he quits.
