Ecclestone: “Mercedes and Ferrari, the ruin of F1”

New week and new thrust from Bernie Ecclestone aimed at the usual Mercedes and Ferraris guilty of damaging the Great Circus on four wheels.

“While we are trying to save the sport, they only care about their own interests, furthermore if today Toto Wolff said that Christmas is December 26th everyone would agree with him, the same goes for the Maranello team” – he stated to the BBC.

“F1's objective has always been to entertain the public, not to act as a showroom for the brands for the benefit of car sales – insisted the Supreme – Unfortunately they have other desires. For example, instead of the cheaper and more powerful engine to be paired with the current hybrid V6, they would prefer a completely new engine that is the same for everyone. In practice, a gift to manufacturers who come and go when it suits them, see the cases of BMW or Toyota".

“At this rate the Circus will end up destroying itself” – the final sentence.
