First up, a round-up of Herr Max’s latest exploits:

In a cunning bid to keep himself in the news, Max Mosley (pictured above as a young man, with father Oswald) has filed legal action in Paris to prevent the infamous “Nazi orgy” video being viewed online in France. A similar bid failed in the UK. [Reuters]

The Times claims that Bernie Ecclestone wants Mosley to accept defeat like a man. One close friend of Ecclestone said: “President Mosley is in danger of becoming motor racing’s President Mugabe.” Hmm, not sure that Max’s legal team will like that. [The Times]
