I wonder how Max is to blame for Bernie's greediness, Arrows.

Max is not, but maxgate is the excuse that Bernie is seeking to justify his latest attempts at greed:

"As far as the FIA president is concerned this has now been made clear and there is not a change in the position at this time," Ecclestone added.
"A number of the manufacturers and teams along with their sponsors have stated that they thought the president should stand down because of matters in his private life.
"This is their and only their opinion as they are not part of the FIA and therefore do not have votes."

Hence the excuse to try to force the FIA to do bernie's will (ie keep those $$$$$$$$ rolling in to certain pockets)

Did you notice those funny symbols on the backs of the ferrari team mechanics and so on at Canada? Those are the spots that Marlboro is paying to Ferrari to keep for their name (which magically appeared at certain third country races last year, and no doubt again this year as well), so with bernie and F1 in general, it is not about anything but revenue

None of them ( teams, MANUFACTURERS NOR SPONSORS) really care about what Max or bernie or RD or anyone else does, as long as it does not negatively affect revenue

Of course the fear remains that the chickens will come home to roost, and when they finally do, the manufacturers and s[ponsors will not be happy
