Discussion
It would seem that MM is dropping more hints that he hopes to still be around after next October - http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/72559
Warning off candidates, ruling out the deputy, saying how complex it is. He doesn't even want a challenger by the look of things.
Where do you get the application form?

"The difficulty is finding somebody who has the necessary experience, but also the time and inclination to do the job," he explained. "You mention Nick Craw. He is the president of ACCUS, which controls all the different forms of racing in the United States. With all this to contend with, he is probably not exactly looking for work."
As my late grandmother would have said: "He's so crooked that he couldn't lie in bed straight."
I reckon Luca di Montezemolo is after Max Rufus' slot, so to speak, and he sees the leadership of FOTA as a stepping stone.
Whether this is a good thing or not will, of course, remain to be seen. Max Rufus was seen as the saviour of fair play following the surprise (to some - most espectially the bloke himself) voting that rid the sport of Balestre. And give Max Rufus his due, in the first few years he seemed a massive improvement, at least to me. It wasn't until the Indy FiAsco that I began to realise what many others had already seen.
Didn't someone once say something about absolute power?
And with regards to Mosley staying, didn't someone say something about looking into the abyss? Something about Mosley's eyes staring right back at you?

It isn't a rosy implication for anybody considering standing, is it? Effectively, 'if you stand against me, make sure you win, because if you don't you're finished'.
They would have known that already.In the '01 election, Mosley's reign was seriously threatened by a rival (IIRC, it was Darbelnet of the AAA). After he was re-elected, the scheming vermin got the rules changed, so that since then the voting system has been heavily stacked in favour of the incumbent.

As a friend mentioned to me today, Mosley's now saying that the job is too demanding and time-consuming for almost anyone bar himself.
One then has to wonder how Mosley can find sufficient time for his FIA responsibilities in between his flogging sessions.

Unpaid position my rude hole.

I clicked that madam spanky link, seems Max's people are prepared to accept applications from both genders, the kinky buggers.
Actually, the longer Max hangs on & Bernie continues to put his pocket 1st the sooner the teams will sod off & start their own thing.
Right now that's got to be best for the sport.
