He's just expressing his thoughts and opinions. I'd say he's power mad to the max.
edit:
I don't think he's a racist. I think the FIA are not racists. If they are, then why does Bernie want Lewis to win?

Max Mosley is an eccentric, but I doubt he's a racist. People in his position tend to be disliked and often say controversial things. I'm sure only a limited few who post either questions or answers on here remember his predecessor, the infamous Jean Marie Balestre, a man who suffered with
terminal foot-in-mouth disease.
As for his lineage, you really can't blame Max for being the son of Oswald Mosley. You can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family.
Here's what Max once said about his family history:
"There was always a certain amount of trouble (being the son of Sir Oswald) until I came into motor racing. In one of (my) first races ... there was a list of people when they put the practice times up. All the competitors in that class ... (looked) at the list and they came to my name and I heard somebody say, 'Mosley, Max Mosley; he must be some relation of Alf Mosley, the coachbuilder.' And I thought to myself, 'I've found a world where they don't know about Oswald Mosley.' And it has always been a bit like that in motor racing: nobody gives a darn."

Max Mosley is the younger son - not grandson - of Oswald Mosley, leader of the British fascist party before and after the Second World War and his second wife Diana - who was a great personal friend of Adolf Hitler. So he wasn't born into the most racially tolerant family!
In 1959 his father stood in the general election for Kensington immediately after the Notting Hill race riots. He stood for election on a fascist, racist anti-immigration platform. Max acted as his father's election agent and was apparently quite happy to be involved in the street violence Mosley provoked.
It destroyed any possible chance for Max Mosley to be involved in 'proper' British politics.

Don't crucify him for his Grandfathers crimes, who was Oswald Mosley - leader of the Britains leading Fascist Party during WW2. He had links to Hitler and would have played an important role if the Germans managed to invade.
Max, may well be rascist, but none of his actions lead me to believe this. He doesn't like Ron Dennis, he has not spoken out against Lewis, just not hyped him like everybody else.
Everybody has a bad word about Max, I respect him for doing the job even if I don't agree with all of his policies.

Max is power mad and Bernie is money mad. personally i think if Lewis had driven for Ferrari this year then max would have been his no.1 fan. it has nothing to do with race, colour or creed, its just he drove the wrong colour car

yet additionally bear in mind that he could be very controversial in his working of formula One, so this to many followers is his 'comeuppance'. i individually think of in spite of he desires to do in his very own time is as much as him... i'm specific many human beings on right here (different than me in spite of the undeniable fact that) could opt for to be waiting to arise with the money for to get 5 birds in a lodge room and get freeeakaaay lol i think of he would would desire to renounce quickly besides, a great form of his judgements and stance on the spygate subject and now this have left his popularity at an exceptionally low ebb. I agree that the information of the international is an exceptionally unfavorable e-e book, and had no top to pry into intense-profile man or woman's goings-on, they do no longer look to be public sources... i think of the F1 communities would desire to modern-day a public front on the subject, and their prerogative is to distance themselves from the subject, whether Mosley is solid or incorrect, as this is genuinely a taboo subject... it might look as though a stab interior the back, yet very in many cases they have felt somewhat cheated via Mosley's judgements... what is going around comes around eh!?!

Mosley is racist against McLaren .. Simple as that ..
He hates McLaren with a passion and is in the hip of the supposed good guys who can do no wrong Ferrari
I suppose Red is a good colour for him in that respect ..

Really verbal rather. He feels the need to say what he thinks but be fair, he may be anti-Hamilton and Macca but Bernie is anti-Kimi and Ferrari. Power mad vs. money mad, you really can't get any better than that... I wonder, did Bernie and Max bet on who'd win the WDC??? Max is power-mad... BIG TIME.

Who isnt power mad when stting on top of a money empire such as formula 1. racist ? I doubt it! You can be anti anyone without giving attention or reference to their race. very rich people are seldom racist they just dont have time for it, their Education levels are far too high.
