A quote attributed to John Booth team principle for the new entrants for next year compared the rapidly changing rules as ‘quicksand’. Speculation linked to this quote and the state of the construction works at proposed new circuit of Donnington had led some to believe that f1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone had decided to take the sport in a radical new direction. This is not the case however and will undoubtedly lead to some disappointment in Woking as it is unlikely McLaren’s current car could be much slower in an off-road event than it is on the track.

Published June 29, 2009 Uncategorized Leave a CommentFresh from the FIA-FOTA super happy family day out in Paris on Wednesday, Max Mosley, 4 term FIA president sat down for his cornflakes on Thursday morning, and took a sip of orange juice. He opened up his stack of newspapers (Men in his position don’t do RSS feeds); and promptly spat aforementioned juice across the kitchen table and sat there aghast.
He had apparently not only agreed to not run for office in October (which he distinctly remembered promising to do on Tuesday), but he had also apparently surrendered all responsibility for F1 to one of his neighbours in Monaco.
Well everyone had seemed so nice yesterday, but clearly he had not been paying attention. Was it too late to rescue everything? Of course it was, he was Max Mosley, man of power. One sharply worded letter later, incorporating a speciality impossible deadline for an hour or so later on that day, and he was not just back up for re-election, but also scaring the rest of the minions back into line.
And with that Max started on his cornflakes with a smirk.
This article was a parody, as is everything else on this site, no F1 lawsuits here please.
Following the recent outbreak of peace in f1 circles on Wednesday, a crisis soon emerged. F1 journalists and promoters reacted with horror as the prospect of a day with NO F1 NEWS loomed for the weekend. As the Hacks nervously chewed on their pencils, and the teams PR departments fretted over their careers, a saviour emerged… Armed with an angry letter and full faith in the ability of anything in F1 to leak within hours…Mad Max charged to the rescue
This just in from Wednesday morning…
Peace has broken out in F1, following an FIA meeting in Paris, Bernie, Max and Luca decided that the best way for Bernie and Luca to find a solution was to sack Max. Max was so surprised at how easily the deal had come together he signed up immediately, before they all greeted the worlds press declaring ‘peace in our time’. The three of them couldn’t have looked happier as the breakaway series was quashed…
Bernie Eccelstone announced this weekend the the British grand prix will be held at Silverstone in 2010 barring the event that Donnington miraculously being possible.
The installation of trampolines around the paddock is believed to have convinced Bernie that Silverstone had the infrastructure necessary to allow him to dramatically flip positions so quickly.
Donnington Park is believed to be focusing its redevelopment on flip flop vending stalls in the hope that if the F1 supremo comes to visit the decision may be changed again.
