    Verrry interesting....

    I expected Mercedes, to make a move of some sort,such as buying controling interest in McLaren, as has been written in the article. What will happen with the Criminal Investigations, in Italy and the UK, if they are still in due process, who knows what Mercedes, will choose to do with the Ronster? I am surprised by Mercedes, silence...As Sgt. Schulz, used to say. "I know nothing..." I am sure it has hurt them, in the Market Place, but how much?

    Ciao...Paolo

    ...they´ll need plenty of silver bullets, a loooooong and sharp wooden stick, a collar of fresh cutted garlic heads, and a lot of nails to shut his coffin...

    ...even with all that, there´s a risk he might come out...
    ...maybe Norbert Haug is his secret servant...Mercedes has one big ghost haunting them with this guy on board... ;)

    ...I´d love to see his face if he ever gets sacked...this guy is just non-dead...yet

    ...He who has the gold rules.

    Dennis the Menace needs to go. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

    He probably has a future as a dog fighting magnate as the successor to Michael Vick. ;)

    I think this is the key part of the article: "fuelled speculation that the 60-year-old McLaren chairman might be considering a dignified retreat into semi-retirement.' "

    The funny thing is other rumors have it Ron was planning on starting to take a step back from running the company last year but, the scandal forced him to put that off. Now he's dammed if he does and dammed if he doesn't.

    It'd be such a joy to never ever have to see that arrogant face on the pitwall again.

    Too bad Whitemarsh was the MoC at the launch. He should be in jail. Hopefully that'll happen over the next couple of years.

    Well wouldn't that be wild if it came to be?
