- 15 Oct 07, 16:47#17878It's about time somebody has come out and said it. It's all true: he has been in the job for far too long. At the beginning of his tenure he carried through some good safety legislation - which anybody would have done anyway - but what has he done since, apart from ally himself to Ferrari and give them free reign to get away with what they please whilst the other teams follow a more strict set of rules.
Regardless of whether or not McLaren were guilty, or it was a setup, or whatever, the investigation into the spy scandal was flawed and conducted in an unprofessional manner. Money, personal vendettas and alegiances dictated the outcome from the beginning. As head of the FIA, Mosley should have clamped down on this, but oh no. He was instigating it and stoking its fires!
Then, we have his rediculous new series of rules for Formula One, having teams that aren't up to stratch and which are barely teams at all, standarised parts, the lot. In effect, taking the heart out of the sport.
Mosley, likes his predecessors, is a disgrace. He has shamed the sport for many years and the spy scandal was the nadir of his tyranny. Get him out, now!
As for the FIA, it needs to have a look at itself, as Sir Jacke Stewart says. We have rules simply invented to penalise teams, Ferrari have more representatives on the WMSC than anybody, decisions made behind closed doors, and in cahoots with Ecclestone and his motley crue. You name it, the FIA soap-charade has it.
This sport needs a revolution.
