Former FIA President Max Mosley is the special guest on a very busy line-up for The F1 Show this Friday.
Sky Sports F1 will welcome a very special guest to The F1 Show sofa this Friday evening - former FIA President Max Mosley. With some much going on behind the scenes in Formula 1 at the moment regarding the future of the sport, and the teams to meet with Bernie Ecclestone and current FIA chief Jean Todt in Paris next week in a bid to try and thrash out the final details of the new Concorde Agreement, the appearance of a man who played such a central role in similar negotiations over his 16 years at the helm of the governing body couldn't have been timed better. The ever-thorny issue of cost control has also been back on the table in recent months and Mosley, who famously tried to introduce a budget cap on the sport in 2009, is also likely to offer his views on that topic along with the controversial 2014 engine regulations and a host of other pressing matters. As well as a look at the future, Georgie Thompson and Ted Kravitz will also be looking back on the Korean GP, which while hardly a classic, threw up a number of talking points. Red Bull's increasingly ominous momentum was the theme that ran right through F1's Far East double-header and our team will be analysing just how much of a difference the recent spate of impressive upgrades to the RB8 - headlined by the Double DRS - have made on the stopwatch. The returning Allan McNish will also be at the SkyPad to run the rule over some of the other major incidents from Yeongam, including Nico Hulkenberg's stunning double pass on Lewis Hamilton and Romain Grosjean. The German looks increasingly certain to be Sauber-bound come season's end and, in the F1 News, we'll look at that impending move and the potential implications of it along with Felipe Massa's one-year deal at Ferrari and Pastor Maldonado's Williams future. The Venezuelan was with the rest of the Williams team up at Silverstone this week for a partner day and we were there too, where we chatted to the latest female driver to try F1 machinery - Susie Wolff - and caught up with the rising star who has Indian parents, Italian ancestry and was born in...Romford: newly-crowned F2 champion Luciano Bacheta. Our most jam-packed show yet? It may well be and so we would advise you not to miss it on Sky Sports F1 on Friday at 8pm. But of course, even if you do first time round, the programme will be replayed across the weekend on the channel starting with further showings at 11pm, 12.30am and then at the slightly more leisurely hour of 11.30am Saturday morning.
