Times said:

Max Mosley's eldest son has been found dead from a suspected drugs overdose. Alexander Mosley, 39, was confirmed dead after police were called to his home in Notting Hill, West London, yesterday afternoon.

....police are not formally identifying the victim as not all next of kin have been informed.

"We believe we know the identity of the deceased. The Coroner's office has been informed."

But the Times are quite happy to plaster their website with his name. I don't like Max but the media are proving themselves to be selfish story grabbing scumbags again.

Not a MadMax fan, but nobody deserves this. Horrible.

Sad day for the family.

The BBC have this on their Radio news.

Sad news indeed for the family.

Seems strange that the FIA have already issued a statement as well.

In a statement the FIA said: "The FIA extends sincere condolences to the Mosley family on the sad news of the death of Alexander Mosley.

"Our thoughts are with Alexander's family and friends, and we would request that the media respect the Mosley family's privacy at this difficult time."

Harsh stuff.

In the battle between MM and the media, I'm firmly on MM's side. Lets hope that MM can prove somesort of connection between this and the shock to his family about the revelations about the Chelsea incident, and if not, form one.

[oobster]

Can't stand Max but sincere condolences to him & his family on their loss.

Amen to that

If this was a "Trainspotting" style addict, no one would give two hoots, not the papers, nor anyone on here.


Drugs dont discriminate between the rich or poor.

You think he should use the death of his eldest son to score cheap political points?

FFS.

I think what you are saying while this is a sad day for Max and his family. We should keep in mind that 14.7 people commit suicide every day in the UK. It's a sad day for all those families who have to go through this, and it seems crass to focus just on this one person because of his dads fame.
