German press reports

It's claimed that the espionage scandal could be the final chapter in the Formula One career of Ferrari boss Jean Todt.

The German newspaper Bild reports that the Frenchman's relationship with Ferrari President Luca di Montezemolo is not good.

It is also claimed that Ross Brawn may have signed to return to Ferrari in 2008, on the condition that Todt has departed.



this could all end up looking good for F1
who's going to pull the trigger on Mosley ?

Flipping 'eck - they're going back to be the eternal Italian soap opera again... at this rate, the current season may be the last one in which they're truly competitive for a long time to come...

If this does blow up in his face, then the FIA will.

Nah, that's an English soap opera... a bit more restrained, with basically the same ingredients but (barely) concealed by a varnish of stiffupperlipness...

The main problem with the vile little Hungarian leaving Ferrari is that he's being lined up to replace Mosley at the FIA, so we'll be in for a few more completely unbiased FIA decisions...

Since I heard him speak on Sunday, I have hated him even more.

Do you think even his mother liked him?

Hungarian immigrant parents.

And his dress sense and hairstyle are similar to Granville from Open All Hours, who allegedly had hu-hu-Hungarian ancestry (according to Arkright, at least).

"So just what was it that attracted you to the millionaire Jean Todt, Ms Yeoh?"

Sorry, what's the problem with Jean Todt?

Seems to me he's a nice bloke who was a very successful co-driver who became a very successful team manager. Is this just the usual pathetic dislike of anyone more successful than yourself or do you lot have genuine reasons that I've somehow overlooked during my years of following motorsport?

[RVVUNM]

You never see Jean Todt and Barny Rubble in the same room!

Looks kike the're making room for Schumi
