Mosley 'wrecked US F1 salvage talks'
The US Grand Prix fiasco could have been avoided but for the intervention of Formula One boss Max Mosley, Minardi boss Paul Stoddart has said. Stoddart said most F1 teams had lost faith in Mosley - the president of F1's governing body the FIA - and repeated calls for his resignation.
He said Mosley resisted all attempts to solve the problem of Michelin being unable to guarantee its tyres' safety. 'Mosley failed in his duty so I have called for his resignation,' he said. 'There is no question in my mind that the farce that occurred... at Indianapolis was the responsibility of the FIA president, Max Mosley, and compounded by the lack of support from (Ferrari boss) Jean Todt. 'Mosley refused to accept any of the solutions offered and that refusal was, I believe, politically motivated.'
In other F1 news, BMW has purchased Swiss Racing Team Sauber to create their own independent racing team. What this means for the Williams Team remains to be determined although the relationship has been stormy.
