Former world champ slams FIA

Jody Scheckter has criticised Herr Max von Spanky and the FIA for “destroying” F1, claiming they have turned it into “a whole big dictatorship”. In an interview with The Independent, Scheckter went on a massive anti-Max rant:

“I don’t like the way Formula 1 has gone… If you don’t support it, you find yourself on the outside. It needs a radical overhaul of its structure. I don’t like what is happening within the Formula 1 spectacle; it is disgraceful.

“Mosley is the problem. What people do in their private lives is their business, but not when you have a background like his. Once you get exposed like that, whether it’s right or wrong, there is no industry I know of where you would survive.”

Don’t hold back, J-Sheck. And don’t expect a Christmas card from Max any time this century.

Scheckter hard fact! Jody now runs an organic farm in Hampshire. True story.
