Personally, I think he should go. But I reckon what he did is also his own business and nowt to do with anyone else. AND...............why oh why oh why..............do all these rich, overpaid, pampered feckers insist on videoing themselves......or allowing someone else to do it? It seems that footballers etc etc, and MM are on such an ego trip that they WANT us to know. He should go, if only for his stupity or vanity.........and can I tell him, he could have done this every week for the last ten years but have insisted on no cameras and videos and he'll have kept his job. Their is no substitute for stupidity!

He should definetly go. It's a case of power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Should be a limit to how long they can be in charge for. Seems whenever people in power go past a third term they go power mad, believing they are always right. I would like to see him take NOTW to court, they probably have even more on him we should hear about, and it's a new's corporation which owns the Times whith whom he is suining Martin Brundle.

It would seem he is not planning on going.......
Mosley apologises and vows to stay
Max Mosley has apologised to members of the FIA for any embarrassment caused by the recent revelations about his private life, but made it clear he remains fully committed to his role as president of motor racing's governing body.
In a letter sent on Tuesday to all presidents of the national FIA clubs, all members of the FIA Senate, the World Motor Sport Council and the World Council for Mobility and the Automobile, Mosley blames the allegations about his sexual conduct on a 'covert' operation to discredit him.
The FIA head also denied claims from the newspaper that there were Nazi connotations in his actions.
He also reveals that he intends to take legal action against the News of the World newspaper for the article.
In the letter, Mosley writes: "From information provided to me by an impeccable high-level source close to the UK police and security services, I understand that over the last two weeks or so, a covert investigation of my private life and background has been undertaken by a group specialising in such things, for reasons and clients as yet unknown. I have had similar but less well-sourced information from France.
"Regrettably you are now familiar with the results of this covert investigation and I am very sorry if this has embarrassed you or the club. Not content with publicising highly personal and private activities, which are, to say the least, embarrassing, a British tabloid newspaper published the story with the claim that there was some sort of Nazi connotation to the matter. This is entirely false.
"It is against the law in most countries to publish details of a person's private life without good reason. The publications by The News of the World are a wholly unwarranted invasion of my privacy and I intend to issue legal proceedings against the Newspaper in the UK and other jurisdictions."
Although there have been calls by some for Mosley to resign in the wake of the scandal, in the letter he claims that he has received support from a number of parties who wish him to stand firm in light of the controversy.
"I have received a very large number of messages of sympathy and support from those within the FIA and the motor sport and motoring communities generally, suggesting that my private life is not relevant to my work and that I should continue in my role," wrote Mosley. "I am grateful and with your support I intend to follow this advice.
"I shall now devote some time to those responsible for putting this into the public domain but above all I need to repair the damage to my immediate family who are the innocent and unsuspecting victims of this deliberate and calculated personal attack.
"You can, however be certain that I will not allow any of this to impede my commitment to the work of the FIA."
The letter is the first public statement from Mosley since the story broke in Sunday's News of the World newspaper.
Although Mosley is scheduled to attend this weekend's Bahrain Grand Prix, it is looking increasingly likely that he will choose to skip the event.
Although the news of Mosley's antics has generated a lot of coverage and reaction in the media, so far Formula One teams and manufacturers have remained silent over the matter.

Is he suggesting that its all someones fault that he was filmed dressed as a nazi etc. can't be long until he suggests it was all McLarens fault. f**k*ng crazy, the man is a cretin and should now retire from public life or better still if the FIA had any balls they should sack him.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/7328018.stmThe pressure is mounting on him to go. Mosley said in a statement: "Given the history of BMW and Mercedes-Benz, particularly before and during the Second World War, I fully understand why they would wish to strongly distance themselves from what they rightly describe as the disgraceful content of these publications. bit of a cheap shot by the guy I think. A imagine the last thing anyone wants is Mosley Goosesteping up the grid with a 1/2 dressed girl on each arm, not just Merc and BMW.

Looks like him in the photos and it looks like concentration camp type clothes the girl is wearing. Blokes a complete and utter handjob.

Apparently he's denying it all and suing the News of the Screws.
I didn't watch the video, but the stills looked convincing, allegedly.
Of course its an invasion of privacy and the result of a witch-hunt

From a meeting of the FIA when McLaren were in the dock-
Ian Mill:
"I have two points. The first is a matter that we did raise in our skeleton submissions: it concerns the Italian documents, if I may refer to them as such, which you have received and which form part of the evidence against us. You will have read in our submissions that we have concerns that those documents may have obtained improperly. We have present, in the room, if deemed helpful and relevant, our Italian lawyer, Professor Amodio, who can explain the issues to you.".....
Max Mosley:
"In front of us is a list of 323 text messages and telephone calls – a combination of the two – over a 3.5 month period. The World Council’s only concern is whether that list is accurate and truthful. We are not concerned with whether there are issues over how that is obtained. Unless there isevidence that it is forged or inaccurate, we will take it on its face value."
The sound of somebody being hoisted by his own petard?
