Max is clearly mad.

indeed, but one rather thinks that we are in paper tiger territory now after he "shot his bolt" so to speak, augmented by the Chairman of FOTA having a very distinct connection with Modena...

Interesting reading. Look at this and see how open the voting for the FIA presidency is. Looks like Max will be with us for ever ::) ::)

How strange that that should have been implemented by Max. The whole thing really stinks and is probably about as undemocratic as the Chinese voting system.

This is the same Max who has been banging on about the democracy of the FIA council throughout his denials that he is running a dictatorship. It really does stink.

Vatanen would get my vote. A true gentleman who has never lost the common touch. I have had the pleasure of meeting him several times and you could not wish to meet a nicer bloke.

Unfortunately Dr S. Your vote doesn't count. But I bet the members of the Bulgarian FIA (and the sutchlike) will be falling at Max and Bernie's feet especially as there may not be a japanese GP next year. they can tempt Thailand and others with the prize of a GP.

Mad Max will not step down. He's a typical defence lawyer that says one thing and does the 'ropydope' by going the other way. Much like his father - a TURN COAT.

By then all the teams will have 'signed up'.

I look forward to a mutiny, it may ruin the F1 formula but what the hell, I love Le Mans.

Todt is to stand against Vatanen for the FIA job, he is the replacement favored by Mad Max which must put him in pole postion amongst the boot lickers.

Vatanen on the other hand comes without any history of dodgy deals (apart from being an MEP), is well liked and Finnish, so therefore a top bloke, and therefore unlikely to get the job.
