However, Mr Mosley mentions the damage done to his reputation, his credibility, via the wicked media, yet does not mention 'ONCE' the damage done to the sport he represents. At the end of the day Max, we do not care how many girls you have sex with and how you go about it, we care about how Formula One is represented. We want the world to see F1 being run as the pinnacle of motorsport, not the cockhanded cornershop that the sex scandal portrayed. If you are so concerned about your image and eventual legacy, then atleast admit that you were wrong to drag the sports reputation through the mud aswell as your own. Since 1993, you have achieved great things, especially concerning safety and proper medical facilities instead of a 'shed out back' like we used to see in the old days. In twenty years time Max, if you are not carefull, people will forget this aspect of your achievements. They will remember the video tape, and those days at the beginning of 2008 when F1 fans were ashamed to be associated with you. You may have many people in your pocket Mr Mosley, but you cannot airbrush history and you cannot fool the fans. I hope you read this, and for a second atleast, feel as disgusted with me as I feel with you everyday for what you have done to Formula One racing.

Mosley's both arrogant and hypocritical, a guy that hasn't had a salary in nearly 20 years and has amassed millions (some say over $300m) from his F1 presidency. What he wants is freedom from exposure so he can continue to deceive his wife, family and colleagues as he has over the last 45 years. I can see why he's a perfect candidate for public office and thats all the more reason we don't make it easier for Mosley and his ilk to evade censure by diluting our press laws. They may not be perfect but who knows where we'd be without them, perhaps living under the Sir Oswald type regime that Max understood so well.

But it's a bit much him saying the press complaints commision is a bit like the mafia put in charge of the police force. He's not exctly been a saint as head of the FIA (which is pretty much the same thing as the pcc). He should put his own house in order before complaining about other people's houses.

As this article is just links to other sites I'm not sure its necessary. It's not something I feel strongly about though so am happy to go with what suits most people.

Of course I may be wrong.... Thats funny, I thought Mad Max went to a court of law for his ‘privacy’ case, and they awarded the damages, not the PCC? Of course I may be wrong….
