Max Mosley: Pot Meet Kettle

posted in Formula One |

I would hope you’re familiar with the idiom “the pot calling the kettle black.” If not well, quit reading now ’cause none of the following will make a bit of sense to you.

Recently former world champion Sir Jackie Stewart has been critical of the FIA in general and in particular how the organization handled the Ferrari/McLaren/Renault spying affair. In fact Sir Jackie echoed what most fans and members of the press have expressed:

“There must be the removal of any concern over the genuine independence and impartiality in the governance of the sport by the FIA,” Stewart said.

Not content with calling Stewart a “certified half-wit” over previous comments Mad Max let loose this barrage in response to the lack of impartiality charge:

“Dear old Jackie,” Mosley said in an interview this weekend with the Guardian. “He knows nothing about sports governance. Because he never stops talking, he doesn’t know much about anything, actually. He just talks.”

Pahlease! That folks is the finest example of the pot calling the kettle black you’ll ever see.

Has anyone ever seen Max’s mouth closed whether near a microphone or not? His wife probably sleeps with ear plugs to stifle in incessant night-time muttering that must occur. He quite possibly has more quotes on record than The Bard of Avon for Christ sakes.

Dear old Mad Max, STFU.

    That’s one of my favourite lines and I use it so often-usually in reference to the more favoured members of my management staff. It’s just as appropriate here…possibly more so.

    Dear Santa, all I want for Christmas is a new and improved FIA.

    Waes Hal!

    Yeap, as far as I can tell Max gets around fairly well, at least I’ve never seen him with a walker.

    But mentally, the man is as feeble as one-legged Dodo Bird. And they’re extinct.
