What is the story with Flavio Briatore and his ban from F1?

Whilst out today I saw him, Bernie Ecclestone and another guy having lunch in the Emporio Armani Caffe in Knightsbridge. Got a pic too. Could Flav be back soon?
Pic or it didn't happen.

You could always resize the image using MS Paint; or even upload it to Facebook; it'll resize and optimize the photo for the web and you can just link to it. Either way it's not surprising as both are co-owners of QPR and very old friends. Bernie has lunch with friend, it's not exactly a big headline!

I believe he was under threat of losing his ability to own a UK football club but I don't believe the FA followed through with the threat, but I am not 100% on that!

Nope, because he basically jumped before he was pushed on that one. I think Bernie and that Mittal (?) guy still own it though.
