Ex-FIA president Max Mosley, one of the best-known figures in F1 history, has died at the age of 81.
Mosley was a founder and co-owner of the March team and became their representative at the Formula One Constructors’ Association (FOCA).
He then, along with Bernie Ecclestone, went on to represent FOCA in their dealings with the FIA and race organisers.
Mosley became president of the FIA in 1993 and remained in that role until 2009 – when he was succeeded by Jean Todt – even after lurid stories about his private life had appeared in the media the previous year.
