I watched Formula 1 as long as I can think. I've even seen on TV Niki Lauda loosing his ear in that fiery accident at the Nürburgring.

I think I might have missed maybe three or four races in my lifetime.

But thanks to this comment of Bernie Ecclestone I will never watch a Formula 1 race until this hateful Dwarf steps down.

Nah Bernie, 90% of the world hates you, and the other 10% just act like they don't.

The first thing that comes to mind when I see a Bernie post is this :

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

He's a dinosaur with antiquated/outdated/bigoted/racist ideas and the sooner he drops dead the better.

I really wonder what the manufactures are going to do. If Ernie keeps acting like this and they don't do anything, it kind of makes it look they they are on board with it.

so if putin is behind the ban on transgender and other "deviants" from driving, does that mean bernie would consider banning gay drivers from the f1 grid?

(i know we're not apples-apples here regarding orientation and lifestyle, but im interested to see how this plays out)

He's a complete idiot. He's also just mad because of how hideous his hair is.

I'm just waiting for a current F1 driver to open up as a homosexual.

If he tried it, I'd bet a few countries would ban F1 that season.

that would be a great resolution for 2015!

Well, he certainly banned gay audiences

That still might take a long time. I just wish somebody would out Ecclestone now!

"Yeah, he sucked my Duck at the Silverstone Paddock in the late 70's. And snorted coke out of my butt crack"

Well we've still got over 300 days to go, when it gets down to 50 or so we may need to help it along.

Drop dead you bigoted old fart.

And take Bernie with you!

one would hope... actually... if such a bigoted comment led to countries terminating their races/contracts, and revenue suffered, it might be a way to get the little troll out of there.

unfortunately, texas would probably lobby for 2 races. (i do love the cota track though)

As fast as sponsors moved away after the LA Clipper fiasco of last year, I can't imagine Mercedes Benz, Ferrari, Infinite, and now Honda would even like to risk being mentioned in the same article with Bernie let alone being in a business relationship with him.

He's already practically banned women, so I wouldn't put it past him...

So he bans women and is anti-gay, it's like he's only loves himself...

Uncle Bernie is an example of what happens when some people get too much money and power. They just get weird.

Maybe we can help it gain some traction?

Putin and Ecclestone are likely quite similar - and both do things for a reason. Consolidate the Russian populace opinion by providing a common enemy...

Yeah, well, I think we need an Anti-Ecclestone law, and an Anti-Putin law.

...I may write this up myself on ROYGBIV, do you have an issue with that? I'll hattip you at the bottom.

you may have to forgive me for not knowing what ROYGBIV is, but sure, go ahead!
