The state we’re in today is more than sufficient reason for Max to go away. Backtracking on his decision not to stand for re-election is, perhaps indirectly, an evidence of his poor “governance”.

So, come October, Max should go.

Nothing.

And sponsors will leave only when they no longer feel they are getting value for money, not because of someone's off duty activities

Surely Max Mosley should not think that he is bigger than the sport, if he's done wrong then he should stand down A.S.A.P before he does further damage.
Such a responsible position calls for a responsible decsion so Max why not just go now.
His comments on Jackie Stewart surley where not warranted and only can prove what contemptable man we are dealing with.

I might expect this behaviour from a power crazed tin pot dicatator, but the President of Zimbabwe really should know better…

As the saying goes "its time for Max to eat his own dog food"

I agree with this position exactly. As a Canadian born in 1939, the WWII Oswald Mosely part is not really part of my personal history — and I was prepared to not blame the son for the sins of the father, but, that aside and counting the 'Nazi' part as a throwaway, Mosley cannot continue as the head of the FIA and its involvement in auto racing. I am surprised that, given that he seems to still be a lackey of Ecclestone (going back to the FOCA days), that Ecclestone hasn't pressured him into resigning already.

It would seem to me that is the question that must be answered here. Can Mr. Mosley effectively represent the interests of the motor sport and motoring industries effectively before the various organizations it is involved with. If you believe he can then he should stay. If you believe he can't then he must go. In my mind he cannot and so he should go.

Thank you for voicing mine and many others feelings about Max Mosley.
I was still incensed from his insulting remarks about Sir Jackie Stewart and the lack of apology, when this latest tale of woe spilled out.

Max Mosley has taken advantage of his position, his situation is impossible, he must resign, the quicker the better.

G.I.Page

The bigger issue though is the unrepresentative way in which the sport is run – how can minor countries with no meaningful motorsport activity be given the same say as the UK, Germany, Italy, France etc?

Finally, it is crucial that the position be taken by someone who is competent and impartial. The idea that Jean Todt would be a good choice is unbelievable.

Of course he should go.

Any FIA member who votes to keep him should have the courage to explain themselves in public.

All this on top of several years of inappropriate and underhand support for the "damn red cars", abusing respected racing personnel of real pedigree, underhand financial dealings and political shenanigans. For pity's sake Max, leave.

Further, he gets off on beating women. Whilst Damien Smith says that Motor Sport takes no moral stand, I feel that the head of a multinational concern that thrives on publicity must set an example. Or rather a good one, perhaps just not a bad example. His desires are pre-programmed but his indulgence of them is a matter of choice.

Further, prostitutes are vulnerable. They enter the ‘profession’ for a multitude of reasons but there are few who do not regret it. This is not Jacqui and Tracey from down the pub returning for a bit of fun and nor is it the neighbours round for a game of twister so let’s hear no more about consenting adults as if it was a game of Monopoly.

There are many jobs and careers where one’s private life is of concern to one’s employer and I believe that had Mosley worked for a multinational company where image was important, he would have been fired as soon as his actions were known.

Mosley uses moral judgement in his defence of his actions, such as invasion of privacy. One feels that he can’t have it both ways.

On the matter of the fascist element: the essence of German nazi actions was the death camps, not the badge. The German military uniforms, the checking for lice, the beatings, the dehumanising prison uniforms and mention of the ‘facility’ can have only one interpretation of someone who, like me, was born in the immediate post war era. For someone of Mosley’s age, background and parentage, it is overwhelming. The argument about what wasn’t present is unsustainable, whatever the FIA retained lawyer might say.

And finally, how can a person who is barred from entering a country running a GP, shunned by the royal houses of Europe and the sports ministers of foreign countries, expect to perform his role?

As you may have guessed I feel Mosley must leave. His continued refusal to do the honourable thing is hurting the sport I love. He has no defence, no excuse, no credibility. Just go.
