No more Bernie?

Postby Craig. » Thu Nov 20, 2008 2:25 pm

Well recent reports are Bernie and his wife are divorcing. It gets interesting when you see that its Mrs Bernie who's name is on a large number of Bernies business interests including the company who hold the rights to F1. Not knowing the in's and outs of this, but it would appear she may have him by the short n curlies when it comes to the whole situation.

I'm sure Bernie's lawyers will have input on this.. I bet Slavia's name is just that, name only.. for Inland revenue purposes perhaps?  ::)  ;D

I always wondered what the glamorous, tall Mrs. Ecclestone saw in the short, old multi billionaire....

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

The reason his wife is on all the papers as the owner is because Bernie was declared bankrupt many years ago and therefore cannot be legally the boss ;)

Which reminds me, anyone seen "The Bank Job". There is a deviant politician with a taste for bondage and whips, a real doppelganger for afore mentioned gent. He would have a good chance of a part in F1 The Movie ;D
