Max Mosley, the F1 boss implicated in a swastika-laden sadomasochistic sexfest, has won a landmark lawsuit against the tabloid running the original story and video, the UK's News of the World.

According to The Times, Bernie Ecclestone warned Max Mosley, "that people had been hired to discredit him and that they had been given an unlimited budget to do so." The paper's information comes from a corporate spy who now feels remorse for trying to help the former Fascist Party member avoid the plot against him.
