The article in F1 Live says it all. But I'll say it as well. Max Rufus stayed in power because one bloke thought he should.

How corrupt can a voting system get?

Answers on a postcard with the words; As corrupt at Mosley's voting system, to PH please.

It's an absolute farce.

One man decides that Max Rufus' behaviour was ok and everyone else's opinion counts for nothing.

And the Caravan Club didn't get a single vote? Sounds like a typical MM set up unfortunately.

Sulayem is unashamedly a staunch Mosley supporter, and has referred to the sex scandal as a "terrorist attack on his personal life."

"If anyone can convince me that he has done wrong to motor sport or during his tenure his decisions have hurt formula one or rallying then we have a case. But not over his personal and private affairs" he said.
Maybe Sulayem should open his eyes and ears and separate himself from donations from MM so he recognises reality.

I guess he has asked for the public to prove to him that he has damaged F1 or rallying.

Astonishing, quite honestly....depressing but astonishing.

Not to say a little bit admirable simply for the chutzpah MM has shown in contriving these machinations. No wonder he was so cocky and confident.

Would like to see how he controls 41 of the votes though!?

I guess Oil concessions have nothing to do with it then?
