The silence is deafening, perhaps he has found an old peoples home he likes. I know he has missed the ocassional race where his legal status was in doubt but two in a row means I am hoping it might become permanent. I bet he doesn't miss the next one, he and that Russian thug are best mates.

In fairness to Bernie, he has caused some of the problems in F1, but the inmates in the asylum that make the rules have caused most of them!
The teams draw up the rules, they are to blame!

Afic, they are both to blame, though, I lay most of it at Bernie's feet. He's been constantly tinkering and interfering with F1 for years and now the whole thing looks like it's starting to unravel.

Bernie hated the current regs from the start and told the teams they had given him a lousy product to try and market!

Bernie is about selling the overall circus FOCA are about making as much money out of what they've got as possible.

He's partly responsible for the lousy product. Grand Prix in countries with no motorsports heritage, who are willing to pay him is exorbitant sanctioning fee, so they can hold a Grand Prix on unimaginative circuits, that Bernie gets Tilke to design. Meanwhile Europe, the heart of F1, is having its life blood drained from it.

sort of talking about this in multiple threads...i have many issues with BE and how he has run the sport but he is hardly responsible for the capital flight out of Europe to the new emerging markets and new financials capitals of the world.

certainly he is taking advantage of these trends but its hardly a situation of his making. anyone in charge would have done the same thing imo.

I have to aggre with you, it's rather sad to be honest ..
BUT he is not going to run the sport for ever, hopefully some new blood will be more sympathetic to the needs of the sport rather that just the business end of it ..
