When motorsports president Max Mosley was caught in a sadomasochistic orgy by a British tabloid, we assumed it was his end. Far from it. Riding high on a court victory he's pushing reforms in Europe that will clamp-down on the free press. More »

With Max Mosley pushing a one-engine-for-all agenda as a cost-saving measure for Formula One teams, Ferrari has threatened to get out of the F1 business entirely. Ferrari believes that, after more than 50 years of consecutive commitment to the racing series, it would be better served looking elsewhere for race wins if the spec engine proposal gets approved. Mosley has tried to ignore the problem — which he's proven is a winning strategy. Ferrari is probably just mouthing off, as they have made so much history in F1 people are naming buildings after their drivers. The Ferrari statement below the jump. More »

FIA president Max Mosley, having put all that Nazi fetish prostitution scandal business behind him, is back promoting his cost-cutting spec engine plan for Formula One. Mosley appears convinced that F1 must develop technologies that can make their way to everyday cars in order to remain relevant — technologies like KERS and other energy-recovery techniques. Says Mosely: "[Using spec engines] will give F1 far more relevance and credibility than the use of vastly expensive racing engines, or extremely light and sophisticated gearboxes, both of which are almost entirely irrelevant to modern road transport." Heresy! But we also understand where he's coming from. More »

Though the Germans turned out in droves yesterday to see Barack Obama speak, the company has banned a few videos put together by our friends at Fast Lane Daily that pointed out Max Mosley's Sex-capades. Ze Germans representing Mosley, stereotypically humorless, banned FLD, despite the fact that the video, seen here, is fairly inoffensive. For their part, FLD has put up a video reenactment of what happened with a Rescue 911-level of acting and production. This makes us wonder if Ze Germans have banned us for all our coverage.

Following the Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) shock received by a BMW/Sauber mechanic earlier this week, Autosport reports Toyota may not have their KERS system ready in time for the start of the 2009 season. Toyota F1 team president John Howett expressed concern about the new technology in an interview, saying "Whether [the issues] can be overcome to a satisfactory, safe level before the first race, I can't hand-on-heart tell you." Fans, on the other hand, are expressing great interest in the electrified lithium-ion-coated exploding-battery fest that the 2009 season promises to become. More »

Max Mosley's sordid legal affair appears to be ending now that the judge in the FIA president's case against the tabloid (News Of The World) that published the details of his alleged Nazi Orgy is nearly ready to rule. Though a major distraction for the sport, we've sort of gotten used to the craziness Mosley injects into our workday. But moments like when he told the judge he really likes S&M will live on in our hearts, and in the legal system whenever someone else uses the old Marv Albert defense. But the question still remains — who'll win? We break down the case below. More »

Oh Max Mosley, you creepy weirdo. After being caught in what the tabloid News Of The World described as a Nazi-style sex orgy, Mosley has been forced to cop to the fact that he loves sadomasochistic group sex. But not Nazi sex. No sir. Mosley said he couldn't imagine anything less erotic than Nazi sex, but because he's Max Mosley, he followed up with yet another bizarre revelation. More »

There's isn't much you can say about Max Mosley that's worse than the original Mosley video. So we have to give David E. Davis, editor emeritus at Winding Road, credit for going above-and-beyond in response to the vote of confidence that kept Mosley in charge of the F.I.A., suggesting that, among other things, some Holocaust survivors could get together to entertain Mosley and "if little Max turned up the next morning hanging upside down from a fire escape in some evil slum wearing a full dress ceremonial Nazi uniform and holding a dead rat in his mouth, the world would be a better place."

Those curious how Max Mosley was able to pull an upset vote and keep his job as head of the FIA after a serious Nazi sex scandal need look no further than Mohammed Bin Sulayem, head of motorsports in the United Arab Emirates. Oh Max, did you really think it would look better to have your ass saved in a scandal involving the Jewish community by a guy named Mohammed? It's actually not that bad, we think... though Bin Sulayem did bring up terrorist attacks in his defense of Mosley. Seriously. More »

In a stunning victory aided by the smaller organizations, Max Mosley won a vote of confidence from an assembly of FIA representatives. The vote was 103 for the motion and 55 against with seven abstentions and four invalid votes. The response has been overwhelming with German organization ADAC, the largest automobile club in Europe, vowing to leave the FIA until Mosley steps down. American organization AAA is considering similar action according to a representative who spoke to reporters after the vote. Additionally, the Dutch aren't quite happy and Neville Chamberlain the British MSA (Motor Sports Association) thinks everyone should just move on.

We've got the response from Max Mosley and his band of kinky minions to those puritans from the clubs that asked he accept resignation and be rewarded with a vote of confidence. In his usual nutty fashion, Mad Max responds that this is the "worst possible" solution because any suggestion there is a crisis is "nonsense" and, anyways, he'll lack the authority to save the FIA.

Like we said, we've been trying to tone down the Max Mosley news with the exception of stories so ridiculous they warrant noting, like the involvement of MI5 in the kinky sex or when F1 teams construct complex strategies to avoid Mosley. Therefore, we bring you these two updates. In addition to suing News Of The World, which broke the story, in its home country of Britain, Mosley is also suing the company in France, where the laws must favor the kinky. Not only that, he also rejected what seemed like a fair deal offered to him by a group of FIA officials. More »

We joked last week about how the only reason we're following the Max Mosley story anymore was because it "keeps getting crazier and crazier." Little did we know that it would be revealed by The Times that one of Max's prisoner/gaurd prostitutes (Mistress Abi), in a twist even Graham Greene couldn't have imagined, was the wife of an MI5 agent. For those who don't know, Mi5 is the domestic spying agency pledged to "Defend the Realm" of the UK. In this case "Defend The Realm" meant spanking and sexing the head of the FIA in a sadomasochistic orgy. Remember when Mosley said the sting was setup "by a group specialising in such things for reasons and clients as yet unknown" after getting busted? We now live in a world where that may be true. Understandably, MI5 isn't happy with the implication that instead of tracking down terrorists they're tracking down old man boners. More »

We'd rather not devote time to Max Mosley and his ongoing attempts to screw up racing like he's screwed up his life, but the story keeps getting crazier and crazier. After being asked to avoid F1 events and, basically, being benched for Monaco, Mosley has issued a letter stating that FIA will be ruined and Formula One destroyed if he's voted out in the big "vote of no confidence" meeting this June. This is basically the Nixon approach. The nation will be ruined and the media, who are blowing everything out of proportion for political reasons, will win. Snippets from the crazy letter discovered by Autosport.com below. More »

Remember how that small group of F1 participants (just drivers, staff, team bosses and sponsors) were developing an elaborate system to avoid Max Mosley at Monaco? They were going to hire spies and scouts to follow his movements and make sure that when Mosley tried to find someone they'd have it so someone would say they had just left the place that someone else had said they had just been before. Basically, the Monaco Grand Prix was going to turn into one long Abbot & Costello routine. But then the FIA decided to strip Mosley of his official title, for the event, instead putting Mosley's Deputy in charge. More »

In what has to be the biggest coincidence or worst timing of the year, La Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile, also known as the FIA, which is also known as the Association of Nazi Hooker Sex Parties, International, has launched the Everyrace, an anti-racism campaign. In all reality, this campaign is result of real-life shenanigans not involving Nazis or hookers, but rather racer Lewis Hamilton, who was on the wrong end of some backwards fans in Barcelona. At one point a group of fans even adorned black face paint and wore shirts bearing the words "Hamilton's Family." Max Mosley had something to say about the matter, as well. More »

The latest update in the Max Mosley Nazi orgy sex video scandal is the FIA has set a date of June 3rd for a General Assembly meeting of the FIA Senate, in which there is expected to be a vote of no confidence in Mosley. But to be fair, we kind of expected that. What we didn't expect was that the High Court of London would refuse Mosley's injunction against gossip rag News of the World. The injunction saw the removal of the sex video of Mosley engaging in various acts with five prostitutes, but now that the injunction has been refused NotW has restored the video and reports visits to their web site have increased 600%. Well, we could have told them a Nazi sex orgy video starring a Formula 1 chief would be good for traffic. So, better question is what the new video shows us. Well, it's not so much what we can see as it is what we can hear. More »

It's been a rough one for Max Mosley this week, though Mosley likes it that way, usually. The FIA president, now infamous for his alleged Nazi-stlye sex orgy, has rejected calls for his dismissal, despite automakers and the Royal Family of Bahrain expressing their serious concerns. Though Bernie Ecclestone stands by Mosley for now, things have taken an even worse turn with two major European organizations calling for his removal. More »

Up until now, FIA president Max Mosley has been quiet about the Nazi-style orgy matter, even as Bahrain said they didn't want him. There's a long statement but the gist of it is that he's sorry that this whole thing was made public, that there was no Nazi connotation to any of it (really?) and that he's going to go after those who attacked him. We guess his point is that dressing up like SS officers and screaming in German during sex should not be perceived as anything related to Nazism. The statement below the jump: More »
