South African body tells Mosley to quit

South Africa today became the latest nation to have their motoring association call for Max Mosley to step down in the wake of the scandal surrounding his private life

Motorsport South Africa managing director Beaulah Schoeman declared that the country will vote against the FIA president when the governing body's members meet next month to discuss his future.

"Every single board member agrees that Max Mosley should step down," she told the .

"I haven't seen the video but people's private lives don't concern us. It brings not only the FIA, but motorsport, into disrepute."

The FIA extraordinary general assembly meeting will take place in Paris on June 3, when over 200 members will take part in a vote of confidence in Mosley.

The American, Canadian, and Dutch associations have already demanded that he step down, while federations in Germany, Australia, New Zealand, and Israel have all questioned his position.

But Mosley has made it clear that he has no intention of quitting and claims to have the backing of a large number of country's federations.

So far, only the Automobile and Touring Club of the United Arab Emirates has publicly stated that it supports his stance in not resigning over the matter.
