The next FIA president, who?

Mosley is not standing for re-election.

Assuming he doesn't change his mind, someone has to replace him, but who?

Any prominent FIA figures from your country that you would like to nominate? :p :
 
It's difficult to pick someone out who hasn't upset a large portion fo the F1 community at one time or another.

Although perhaps Bernie will take over!!

Though I think it's between Micheal Martin and Tony Blair.

He just did, :rolleyes:

well actually, he did that a long time ago, bought off maX for 300 million to get the f1 rights, cut a sweet deal with Ferrari at the last threat of a breakaway ("their hands ain't big enough to hold my balls") :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

maX just forgot who calls the shots, and got bernie all upset at the USA gp, about not having the chicane, and the rest was downhill in their relationship----everybody kept saying RD was "behind" the filming in the S&M, but I always wondered if bernie was not involved there somewhere...... :dozey:

whoever it is, will be somebody who will do what bernei tells them to do
 
Ideally, someone who has sod-all interest in motor sport and leaves them to get on with it, just like Mosley (falsely) promised he would do in 1991.

To be honest, there wasn't too much to complain about from 1991-2003. It's only in the past few years that he went a bit silly.

That's very true, although it's the last six years that (naturally) stick in the mind the most, and the fact remains that he did break his promise, even if it took him 12 years to do so :P

you mean about maX, or about how the fans were getting F***** over?
In the lattter, Bernie gets more of the glory than maXine, as I said in other thread, the wrong little man is leaving us, and i wonder how much luca will get under the table for himself?????????????
max got 300 million.....
 
Or me if I can be bought by Bernie.

What? Why do you look at me that way? It´s what they´ve just done!
 
As long as it's not di Montezemolo, Todt or Ron Dennis then I don't really care.

This might sound daft but I reckon Michael Schumacher would do a good job.
 
If, as I posted in another thread, Mad Max doesn't break his word yet again and run I nominate Eki. :eek: :D
If you do not know who Eki is read Chit Chat. :confused:

Maybe but he's too aligned with Ferrari and certain elements in motorsport may not like that plus he's too F1 biased....FIA needs an allrounder.

Todt at least has experience of Rallying, Sportscars and F1.

If any one of these clowns, MS included, would become the next FIA frontman, than we ain't seen nothing yet....

Max was Max but at least he was independent from the current breed of competitors in the field and had no ties to any brand.

The more involvement of manufacturers we will see in the future, the worse it's going to be, believe me.
