Since the conflict raged between the FIA and the teams part of FOTA, Bernie Ecclestone has spoken relatively infrequently. And when he has the microphone in front of him, he often responds to the side, like last Friday, after an important meeting. But, basically, the representative of the commercial rights holders is very worried.

Indeed, the goose that lays golden eggs is Formula 1 lost appeal? and therefore income? if most of the major manufacturers, and especially Ferrari, went. “ I will not let Formula 1 self-destruct, Ecclestone told the Times. I gave 35 years of my life to Formula 1. I even left my marriage there. So I won't let this situation get worse. Especially since, if you analyze the problem, there is nothing that cannot be solved easily. »
