Default Bernie forced out of F1 ?

Luca must be having a pants tent over the possibility.

No Luca, Flavio Briatore is probably NOT the ideal person to replace Bernie.

Bernie is a cockroach. He has a better than 50/50 chance of surviving. I do not know who should be the replacement.

honestly, if there was a huge upheaval in F1 and the commercial rights were up for sale, I thoroughly expect NASCAR to make a bid.

NASCAR is thought of as Provincial in the rest of the world. If he were younger I would like Penske as boss. But Roger is too old.

Nominations for a younger replacement start at the Media tent next to Bernie's camper... He is taking sealed bribes... I mean recommendations.

precisely why NASCAR wants to take over global motorsport

I agree, Roger would be the guy if he was 25 years younger.

Whatever happens to Bernie, its time for F1 to move on.

Flavio knows marketing & management and has the ego.

The right man for the job is Eddie Jordan.
