Stoddart hits out at Mosley

Former Minardi F1 team owner Paul Stoddart has said the boss of F1's governing body, had brought the sport into disrepute after the British tabloid News of the World this week published pictures of a man identified as Mosley apparently posing as a concentration camp commandant and spanking girls dressed as inmates.

According to Stoddart there is no other option than to see Max Mosley resign. "This arsehole has got to go for the sake of the sport," Stoddart told The Weekend Australian yesterday. "His position as head of Formula 1 which boasts 181 member bodies has become totally untenable following the publication of the photographs in the British media.

"Is it little wonder he's not welcomed at this weekend's F1 race in Bahrain? Nor do I think Spain's King Juan Carlos should extend him the welcome mat at the next race in Barcelona in three week's time. There is absolutely no question in my mind that Mosley must go and, only then will I come back to the sport as a team owner."
