F1 » Bernie: Teams need F1 more than F1 needs them

Oh boy. With comments like that Bernie is further alienating the teams. Wake up Bernie you need them more than they need you.

The sad thing is Bernie actually truly believes this.

He didnt make F1, Nor did Max.

Ferrari, Mclaren, Mercedes, Renault, BMW and many before them did that.

FOTA will of course win, then once Bernie and Max are gone, the teams will be back! FORZA FOTA if only for it to make F1 better in the long term.

Albert Einstein once said: "Anger resides in the bosoms of fools". And you are certainly a fool Bernie. The teams combined have more money than even your billions. Money makes the world go around, and with their money, anything is achievable, just copy a few good things here and there from formula 1 and tadaa! a newer better series. I will miss the history of f1, but I certainly won't miss the present / more recent history. Go on FOTA, kick some a$$

The rumblings of a delusional old fool. FOTA teams, circuit owners, sponsors & the fans don't need Max/FIA &/or Bernie/FOM.

you just don't get it do you bernie.
these teams that are in fota are the top flight as you put it.
if they leave do you honestly think people are going to pay top bucks for your what will be a second rate circus.
why would i watch williams and force india when i can change channel and watch ferrari and mclaren red bull brawn gp etc.
its time you got real bernie.leave now and take that old coffin dodger mosely with you.

wow that disagree looks dumb on my last comment

As it is said " seems he does protest too much " tha man is clearly rather rattled ..........

While Max and Bernie seem to be doing their best to ruin things, it is extremely naive to say that Bernie didn't get F1 on the map properly. He helped make it big and anybody that's watched it for years or knows the history will recognise that.

Now of course Ferrari, Mercedes, Williams, McLaren, Brabham etc have went hand in hand with that but Bernie was the instigator and had the faith and foresight to do so.

And yes, the FIA have been 'questionable' of late, the huge role they've played in safety should also not be ignored.

I find it very unfortunate what short memories some fans have and I just hope that everybody's blind faith in FOTA is still rewarded in a few years time

we'll all go to watch the best teams boys - bernie and max don't have mucjh of a record of improving the sport - driving in the seeting sun in australia, in the afternoon rain in malaysia, taking a bung from ferrari, changing the rules thn letting thos who break them get away with it, constant screwing over of mclaren...frankly boys we'll all be happy to see you go - long past time to draw the pension - even speed tv thinks you're a pair of jokes and we're not even mentioning the extra curricular sexual exploits that would ruin anyone else in the sport!!

That sounds like a challenge to the teams there! and it's only going to leave Bernie and Max stood in the middle of Melbourne next march with 'race for us' signs hanging off the end of their c**ks, bring on the breakaway.
