Should I Stay Or Should I Go?

Max Mosley has resisted calls for him to resign and is adamant that he will remain in power at the FIA. That is until the FIA re-election in October unless called early, when I have a hunch, he will be out on his ear. However it may well be too late by then to save the Formula 1 Championship - unless that is Luca di Montezemolo takes over – I know that sounds outlandish but he is desperate to run Formula 1 if it’s in it’s current form or a breakaway. It’s not beyond the realms of fantasy he ends up taking over.

After all the issues with FOTA and the FIA Mosley thinks he’s in with a chance at staying at the head of the FIA he is quoted as saying “I must now reflect on whether my original decision not to stand for re-election was indeed the right one.” The FIA will have to make a crucial decision to either stay with consistency in the form of Max Mosley or appease FOTA with someone different who will bow to their requests.

A good article about it all is available on the BBC F1 website here.
