Oswald Mosley's Son to Stay at FIA Despite 'Nazi Orgy'

Max Mosley intends to stick it out as head of the governing body of world motor racing despite his exposure in a Sunday redtop newspaper for having enjoying a Nazi orgy with five prostitutes, sources close to him said today.

The revelations are particularly damaging because Mr Mosley's father, Oswald, was the pre-war leader of Britain's fascist "blackshirts" who invited Adolf Hitler to his wedding.

The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile, commonly referred to as the FIA, is a non-profit association established as the Association Internationale des Automobile Clubs Reconnus (AIACR) on June 20, 1904 to represent the interests of motoring organisations and motor car users. To the general public, the FIA is mostly known as the governing body for motor racing events. The most recent of which being its involvement in F1 during the McLaren Spygate scandal, see 2007 Formula One espionage controversy.

Headquartered at 8, Place de la Concorde, Paris, the FIA consists of 213 national member organisations in 125 countries worldwide. Its current president is Max Mosley.
