F1: FIEh? fatcat to step down in November by Mathias Olaf Uncertain
8th Oct 2008
Sadly, not that fatcat.

FIEh? Deputy President for Sport Marco Pitching-In will leave his position at the end of his term, it was announced on Tuesday.

The news comes as a shock to the motor-racing community, none of whom had ever heard of him before, and several of whom were surprised to hear that anyone else apart from Max Exposure worked for the shambolic excuse for a governing body.

Pitching-In will step down in order to focus on "his other professional commitments", which he vigorously denies are in discreet event management services, which would be expected to increase significantly when Max finally retires as FIEh? president next year.

The fact that Pitching-In is a member of Ferrarsi's board of directors, and has been an employee of the Poncing Arse since 1978 should not be taken as any kind of explanation for any vigorously-denied abject favouritism exhibited by motorsport's pathetic excuse for a governing body since 1998, the year when, coincidentally Pitching-In became deputy president of the FIEh?
