Max Mosley: Privacy campaigner and ex-motorsport boss dies at 81 By Andrew Benson & Ella Wills BBC News Published 51 minutes ago Share please log in to view this image image copyrightGetty Images Former motorsport boss Max Mosley, who later became a privacy campaigner, has died aged 81. Ex-Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone said it was "like losing a brother". Mr Mosley, who had been suffering from cancer, led motorsport's governing body the FIA from 1993 to 2009. He also campaigned for tighter press regulation after winning £60,000 damages from the News of the World when it wrongly published a story alleging he had attended a Nazi-themed orgy. Mr Mosley, in his role as FIA president, initiated widespread reforms of safety procedures in Formula 1 following the death of Ayrton Senna in 1994. Mr Ecclestone added: "He did, a lot of good things not just for motorsport, also the [car] industry. He was very good in making sure people built cars that were safe." Current FIA president Jean Todt said in a tweet he was "deeply saddened" by the news, adding that Mr Mosley "strongly contributed to reinforcing safety on track and on the roads". Meanwhile, a spokesman for F1 described Mr Mosley as "a huge figure in the transition" of the sport.
Nooooooooo! I used to be able to sing the whole of the tea pot song. Lost another one from my childhood. RIP
My thoughts exactly, however have you noticed there has been no lefty outcry over the Stop and Search arrest of the young idiot responsible for the Sasha Johnston shooting, normally that sort of arrest would have the Liebour contingent of Lammy Butler and can’t add abacus Abbott up in arms, however it’s been strangely quiet !!!
