"He has now admitted in his new book ‘The Art of War – Five Years in Formula One’: “I had resigned that week, rightly or wrongly believing that Ecclestone had told my board that no Concorde offer would be forthcoming while I was running Williams."

What exactly has Parr done to piss of Ecclestone?

I wonder the same..

Touched Tamara?

Supposedly Parr is a very smart business astute bloke. He and Bernie are supposed to have differed on a number occasions over the running of F1, with Parr having the acumen to back up his arguments Bernie supposedly didn't like it.

Or in other words Bernie wanted to chop out what he seen as rot before it affected the rest of his money tree.

Probably true too!

Man, like others here, I'd love to know what Bernie had against him.

Bernie doesn't seem like a particularly petty man. I don't think he'd particularly care if you bad mouthed him, only if you cost him money. But that is based off pretty much nothing, so I don't know.

I can imagine that being one of the least watched sex tapes on youtube, down there with Lisa Riley and James Corden

Joe Saward has been flirting with the topic of Adam Parr since he released his book, and posted http://joesaward.wordpress.com/2012/12/12/planting-seeds/ this week. Seems to think Parr was making noises about Bernie making deals that broke EU Competition laws, which sounds entirely plausible.

Parr seems to be making even louder noises now; Seems like a fairly well reasoned chap too.

Oh I reeeeally hope it didn't happen. To be fair, if it did people would probably watch it for the comedy factor. "Watch Tweedledee finger a walrus"

Goddamnit, I just googled her........

Now I have the visual in my mind, I blame you Sevenfest!

In at least one of the Bernie bios it talks about how he can't stand people who are stuck up, intellectual, upper class, cultured, highly educated etc. I think you know the stereotype I mean. He prefer's the self-made man, salt of the earth, say it how they see it practical type. In other words he probably has a chip on his shoulder. How that attitude fits with his long friendship with Max and the way his idiot children behave is beyond me. But it's definitely true. Look at the people he surrounds himself with. The same part of the bio mentions not one of the senior staff at FOM or any of his other companies has a degree. Look at the high profile people he's helped to important roles, Charlie Whiting and Herbie Blash were 'just' Brabham mechanics when he met them. They're his sort of people, Parr is definitely not.
