Bernie turns 80, still giving the finger
28.10.10
It has been a boom year for Formula One, with the best world championship in its six-decade history.
For most of the season there have been five drivers in contention for the title. Mathematically there still are, with Australia’s Mark Webber very much one of them.
Next year the F1 calendar will expand to 20 races, with a new grand prix in India.
In a couple of years the series will go to Russia and there are moves to revive F1 in the United States, where it has never gained strong traction but which remains the world’s most important car market.
Yet the sport’s undoubted supremo, diminutive Brit Bernie Ecclestone, turns 80 today without any transparent sign of a succession plan.
Ecclestone, still sporting a Beatle haircut, remains a ball of energy.
He’s the consummate dealmaker, yet terribly politically incorrect.
A couple of his worst lines over the years have been that women ought to remain in the kitchen “where all whitegoods belong” and that, as a believer in dictatorship rather than democracy, Adolf Hitler was “a man who got things done”.

Anders Limpar asks why Arsenal’s move to the Emirates has been so lauded.
Lovely stadium he notes, but they haven’t won a trophy there. It’s the same with Manchester City, despite all that cash that’s been thrown at them.
Look at the other Premier League clubs who demolished their spiritual homes for a glorious future: Sunderland, Stoke, Bolton and Wigan. Take away the odd Championship success and they haven’t lifted a pot.
Between them they’ve spent 60 years in their new Utopias but picked up no proper trophies. Have the ghosts of fans-past put a curse on the clubs for desertion?
Who knows. But Spurs, West Ham, Liverpool and Everton should take note.

It's been a great season for Sami Nasri, who is undoubtedly the most improved player in the Premier League.
Watching him strut his stuff for Arsenal and France you can see how much he’s learned.
But judging by his comments after Arsenal’s win at Everton he still has a long way to go.
“Is it our title year? It is definitely a case of being optimistic for the future and, maybe, it could be our turn."
Sami, you’ve played 13 games, you’ve lost three of them, you’re not even top, Chelsea are having their blip, Alex Ferguson is yet to get started and you still haven’t got a decent goalie.
