“Ferrari get so much more money than everyone else,” he said. “They know exactly what they get, they are not that stupid, although they are not that bright, either. They get about $80 million (about £54 million) more. When they win the constructors’ championship, which they did this year, they got $80 million more than if McLaren had won it.”
And who did agree to give them more?!
Tell you what the idiot isn't the one asking but the one giving!

“They were the only team that broke ranks with the other manufacturers – why did they break ranks?” he said. “That’s where the $80 million comes in. We ‘bought’ Ferrari. We ‘bought’ Ferrari’s loyalty. Our deal with Ferrari was that we ‘bought’ them so they would not go to the others.”
You little squirrel, are your pants smelling nasty now that Ferrari are the ones menacing with a break away series?
Wake up, you can't buy Ferrari, you can only give in to any of their demands and the other teams demands!
Cause no F1 teams means your business is worth nothing!


“They have the right to send people into the company and search for everything,” Ecclestone said. “Ferrari in particular, more than anybody, from day one, have had the right and they’ve never done it. We have bankers here and we’ve got CVC (CVC Capital Partners, the principal owners of Formula One) checking every single solitary thing. So anybody that starts saying that we’ve done anything wrong, I’ll sue the a*** off them.”
Don't make me laugh, working with banks isn't a proof of legitimate and transparent business, not since the current financial mess showed the truth about their ways!

Please be my guest, try suing the worlds biggest automotive manufacturers, we will we see how much you'll lose from what your wife will leave you after your divorce is over!

BTW, tell us Bernie, is there a new Concorde agreement in place since the previous one expired? If not than you can't sue anyone for anything.

“What he should do, rather than asking for money, with all the extra money Ferrari gets, he should share all that amongst the teams,” Ecclestone said of Di Montezemolo.
I don't think that 80.000.000 USD / 10 is enough incentive anyway, so be prepared to dwell deep in your and CVC's pockets Bernie!

“It’s a shame he’s not in touch with people that seem to run the company as opposed to what he does – work as a press officer,”
I think he might pay dearly for this one. Maybe in the very near future CVC will decide to have someone else to run the F1 business!
