I think the link says it all:

Do you think Ron Dennis set it up?

Unfortunately, not an April Fool's.

Muppet Max's time is up, thank God.

The video is probably on loop in the reception at Maclaren central as we watch in horror/fascination.

Is it just me thinking "so what?". No-one did anything non-consensual. Everyone got what they wanted. No-one seems to be suggesting he used misappropriated funds to pay for this. So whose business is it how he gets off?

Was that Prince Harry in the background? Winker

Quite agree with with Steve Bull; and I think he should travel to Bahrain, if that had been his plans.

He'll be turned back if he tries, and that will cause embarrassment for everyone. The Bahrainis would rather cancel the GP than have this sort of guy prancing around. I'm not making judgement on him, but I'm sure he will take the sensible option. Will he go to Germany?

What's the big deal?

Who amongst us hasn't been to a Nazi sex tea orgy prostitute torture dungeon at least once?

An 18-yo boy (albeit member of the Royal Family) gets hauled over the coals for going to a fancy dress party (in the public gaze) dressed in a clearly spoof Afrika Corps uniform.

The 67-yo son of Oswald Mosely - '30s British Fascist leader and personal friend of Hitler - clandestinely gets his jollies in a sick concentration camp fantasy, and we're told to mind our own business.

What James Hewitt's lad gets up to is, unfortunately for him, of interest to some people, particularly tabloid newspaper owners. But in the public interest? Of course not.

As for Mosely, I only know what I read on the BBC website; that's the beginning and end of my own interest in the whole story.

I expect Ron Dennis is laughing the loudest.

1. Your father was a fascist before and during WWII.
2. Hitler and Goebbels attended your parents wedding.
3. Your first years were spent with your parents on the grounds of a British prison.
4. As the leader of a world-wide sport organization, you think you can get away with 5 hookers and little concentration camp S/M pantomime video.

And you think Jackie Stewart was a dimwit? Son's acorn didn't fall far from Dad's tree!

munch you obviously aren't an F1 fan. Breaking up a continuous action sport with ads is not the way to show it. To have an arse chatter over it is also not good.
It looks like there to be some new and over due options coming with the BBC coverage.


NASCAR can get away with the ad breaks better than F1 on account of the number of cameras and the length of the races most 3hrs +.

Nascar should be banished to the fires of hell and replaced on TV with something exciting like tiddlywinks.

I can say this safely as I don't live in the south! Smile

Not a fan then? I didn't say it was the most exciting, I do how ever appreciate the interplay between the driver and team to adjust and make or break a setup during the race. I tend to record the races watch the start and the last 100 or 50 laps.

they only go to any track the maximum of twice for "cup" races and don't forget the 2 road courses as well.

He carried on long after the war. People were still battling him and his thugs in the 1960s.

Shows how slow I am I didn't get the connection between father and son Roll Eyes I also never realised that Nick Drake was Charlie's son Eek

A fantastic piece of deduction! Smile Most definitely not a NASCAR fan!

Very big business over here though where F1 gets scant coverage in the press compared the good 'ol boy racers in the south!
