Ecclestone easily, if he was the commissioner rather than the "commercial rights holder".

Blatter wins on a technicality.

Ecclestone's pretty openly a fascist symp, right?

In a Times interview published on 4 July 2009, Ecclestone said "terrible to say this I suppose, but apart from the fact that Hitler got taken away and persuaded to do things that I have no idea whether he wanted to do or not, he was in the way that he could command a lot of people able to get things done."

According to Ecclestone: "If you have a look at a democracy it hasn’t done a lot of good for many countries — including this one". He also said that his friend of 40 years Max Mosley, the son of British fascist leader Oswald Mosley, "would do a super job" as Prime Minister and added "I don’t think his background would be a problem."

blatter. goes on about the legacy in south africa after the world cup where fifa made fat stacks but south africa received a tiny fraction, which no way came near to compensating them for the hundreds of millions pumped into infrastructure and new stadiums, new stadiums which are now completely useless.

organisation is so clearly corrupt, and he takes part in that corruption.

oh and the amount of money fifa spends on "governance" etc. is obscene, a lot more than they spend on football development.

Ecclestone easily, if he was the commissioner rather than the "commercial rights holder".

I tried to make the title fuzzy with 'equivalent' because come on, he's the guy.

Just because Jean Todt has done everything that Bernie says doesn't mean tha...oh, forget it.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Bernie Ecclestone has got to be one of the weirdest dudes running a major company, in any field. Beyond all of that insanity, F1 lost their footing in the largest market in the world in a race at one of the iconic race tracks in all motorsports at Indianapolis because they didn't have the right TIRES. WTF?

The France family might be total fascists, but I guarantee you Nascar would not run a freaking race because they don't have TIRES.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
