I seriously wish all the tracks would just tell him to stuff it when it comes to having to pay the incredible amount of fees to himself when it comes to hosting races. The track organizers are just stupid in my opinion as well, for paying the extortion laid out in front of them.

Where would F1 be without circuits to race on?

He obviously has no class at all to have made such remarks in public about Honda. I also hope Honda pulled out not just because of economic concerns, but also as a way of saying NO THANK YOU to open-wheel NASCAR. Which FormulaDumb is becoming. There won't be much difference between it and A1GP soon enough.

I'm done with following along as well, even if Honda was still in it, once they go to more of a spec series than it already is, my interest is nill.

Full on MotoGP following for me.

I wonder if, when Bernie dies and meets his maker, someone will comment, "No great loss."

If anything,Honda should be the one to say "it's no great loss".

I wonder if Bernie would make the same comment if all the teams decide to leave all at once.

I love the prediction by PDL at Autoextremist.com
The Bernie and Max show has been based on a foundation of unbridled greed since they took over the sport. Their constant drive for new streams of revenue, new venues that would blindly pay the outrageous fees demanded, and new corporations who could be duped into spending untold sums of money to be a part of the F1 circus knew no bounds. I hope that Honda pulling out of F1 is the beginning of the end for this sport as we know it, because F1 has been corroded and corrupted by piss-poor management and the emphasis on greed for greed's sake for far too long. Honda has fired just the first shot in this battle. The real war is only beginning. - PMD

They are about to pull the plug on their CEO
