    Mosley Warns GPDA

    FIA president Max Mosley has warned the Grand Prix Drivers' Association (GPDA) against any further attempts to get involved in circuit safety..."Safety has become far too technical for anyone but the specialists," wrote Mosley.

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/56071

    Driver input issst no longer needed.

    What an ass. How can such a pompous dinosaur still maintain such a position of prominence.


    Typo - "warns" GPDA

    Bernie and Max are still the Mafia.
    Only Tilke knows safety.

    I've always suspected that Max has been influenced by his own failures as a silver spoon driver. Driver input has been an element in the majority of safety regulations throughout motor racing history, his assertion that safety is too technical for "them", probably says more about his inadequacies as a analytic racer than anything else.

    Probably gets it from his dad.

    Max is an idiot. What about rally drivers hurtling down a forest road at 200 km/h with trees flying past them Is that safe

    Max is a $#%^&*@ idiot

    mosley = assface

    the drivers are the ones going over 300km/h, i think they should be very much involved in safety, if not the most important voice in track safety improvement
    Sir! While I disagree with what you are saying, I will fight to the death your right to spell the words incorerctly and use heinous.. grammar yo !!!

    If it were up to the drivers, they would race on huge car park with acres of paved runoff.

    To be fair, MM was racing in the same race as Jim Clark on the day the Scot was killed at Hockenheim, so he does speak with some authority as a driver.
