are you insinuating that JT some how orchestrated the hooker espionage? In a game wih such high stakes I suppose you really can't rule that out. Obviously Max had no idea he was being recorded- so someone had a motive- whether it be they were paid to video tape it by someone or they planned on blackmailing him or selling it. This story will certainly have legs- Spitzer ordeal seemed to fork when the identity of the hooker came out I'd imagine this one will follow a similar course
Is JT looking to take over Bernie's job or Max's? I don't really know who runs what exactly. Bernie owns F1 and max is the head of the sanctioning body FIA? Let the conspiracy theories begin..
Well it is morning here in Europe and I have found nothing mentioned in main news sources...this ominous silence is bound to burst this morning...post 155 above was excellent I think the callous arrogant way he treated Michelin and the US GP public in 2005 is my worst memory of the guy but...there are so many to choose from....
Not surprisingly he is consulting his attorneys: http://timesonline.typepad.com/formula_one/2008/03/max-consults-hi.html
The more I think about it, I simply don't believe it's him. Somebody is out to stir up **** and had a few actors make a film. He's 67 and there were 5 of them ... unless he popped a pill ... Pete
What's more interesting to me is where this story id NOT appearing. It's now on every major news outlet in the world with the notable exception of the BBC and ITV. Evidence suggests that the story is being actively censored from these sites. I tried to post about the story on the ITV forum, but it was deleted by moderators. When a search "on the web" for max through the BBC website is performed, nothing about this story appears in the results. Here's a brief list of news outlets that ARE carrying the story: http://news.google.com/news?ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-GBfficial&client=firefox-a&tab=wn&ncl=1147061179&hl=en
does anyone know the source of the video? This **** is way to sensational and ridiculous to make up As the say truth is stranger than fiction
The story is so ridiculous - Its amazing to see that some of these major news outlets - i.e. Reuters- using phrases like "nazi orgy" - have fun explaining that **** to the children of England
The Sun is reporting that the FIA says the matter is between him and the paper: F1 Nazi nookie boss to keep job This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. I don't see how he can keep his job!
What do you expect the FIA to say- its too early If this story is true - there is no way the FIA will stand by him-not a chance It seems as if the video eveidence is pretty damning- and good luck getting not 1 but 5 hookers to lie for you
Your worst nightmare come true tifosi12 F1 Nazi nookie boss to keep job http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article979749.ece It's the Sun, so take it for what it's worth-not much.
Someone let me know when Paul Stoddart chimes in to comment on this story. I suspect that will be a priceless bit of scripture, really. >8^) ER
Anybody else playing "spot the pervert?" "What he does in private is nobody's business!" Methinks some doth protest too much....
Laughing my ass off at the funny post's ..brillant IMO : Moral of the story : If you take on the press, then you better make sure you have your house in order.
If R. Kelly can get off the hook urinating on 16 year olds on camera, then this should be pretty simple. LOL!
I think that if this story had just involved Max having sex with hookers it wouldn't really matter. The bit that makes his job untenable (if the story is true) is the Nazi overtones. I think most people agree that Max can do what he likes behind closed doors and if he chooses to spend £2.5K on 5 hookers for the afternoon then that is ok. The nazi element is what will lose him his job, not the sex. If the paper had pictures of him wearing a nazi uniform he should lose his job.
Now we just need Bernie getting caught having sex in a men's room and hopefully F1 will be rid of both of them.
So the question becomes, were the Ho's going to shake him down on their own, or were they put up to this by someone else? How the tape got out, and who put it out may tell something. I'm kinda stuck on the part where they were inspecting him for lice.
