This is the source of this (non) story:
Q: You and Max Mosley have never had the easiest of relationships. You no doubt appreciate his job is a difficult one, but how would you do things differently if you were FIA President? Are there other directions in which you’d like to take the sport?
RD: As Max has frequently said in the past, commentators tend to exaggerate the level of personal discord that exists between him and me. As regards the FIA Presidency, I've never aspired to it in the past and I don't aspire to it now. It's the running of a company that motivates me, not the governance of a sport.Riccardo Patrese - 256GPs 1977-1993

Isn't Max merely keeping the seat warm for J Todt?

On the other hand it seems the conection between the FIA and Ferrari is stronger than you may think...

Wet conditions. Portuguese Autosport brought something to the table... the WRC2 crews are using a WRC spec tyre that is harder than the spec Meeke and other CPR runners are using.
