Red Bull driver Mark Webber has said Max Mosley has dragged the sport into disrepute following the nazi sex scandal on Toro Bloggo, reported at the end of March.
Webber has slammed the FIA President, saying: “Whether we like it or not, all of us in F1 are role models, and F1 simply cannot have scandals of this type.”
And you know what? Webber is absolutely spot on. These people are ambassadors for the great sport of motor racing, from the drivers, to the pit crew, to the tea lady. As Webber himself says, Mosley is “in a very, very influential position.” Mosley’s future will be decided on June 3, following an Extraordinary General Meeting, and Webber would not comment on whether Mosley should resign or not.
This story looks set to trundle on, and it looks like it’ll do what Spygate did last year… it could overshadow a very exciting season, and as a result, turn people away from the sport. That’s the real disaster.
