      Only a few short paragraphs in and I chuckled after reading this quote from him. “I see he had his share [of mistreatment], but let’s talk about me. If you look at the British media and what they did to me… For God’s sake, they convicted me.”

      meeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

      I’ve not really thought about it before, but he really is trying to make himself the centre of attention. He’s always making statements, handing out medals, being seen on the grid with the drivers. I couldn’t even name another FIA president except Max Mosley, and his complaint with the British press was that they talked about him too much!
