You've been warned: Max Mosley knew what was coming
According to the latest reports, FIA president Max Mosley received ample warning that there were those out to expose and discredit him, but Mosley did nothing to alter his bizarre sexual activities in light of the development. The news stems from a Times interview with industrial espionage expert Dean Attew, who claims he had been approached by parties seeking Mosley's embarrassment and removal from office. Attew, who co-founded Titon International with former special forces commander Major-General John Holmes – a business intelligence consultancy that made the news two years ago when former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko was poisoned by radioactive Polonium 210 – said that he communicated the information to his former colleague, Bernie Ecclestone, who in turn informed Mosley personally. However, Mosley apparently did not take the warnings seriously and was still caught red-handed and -cheeked two months later.

Sigh.
This story just keeps getting better and better. Please someone tell Max what happens when you jump off a cliff so he'll ignore them and do it anyway.

I see nothing about Mosley taking it in the butt... he just liked being tied up and whipped and/or dominating leather-dressed whores.
S&M isn't *that* weird, people. Silly Puritans.

Why would any "sane" highly qualified lawyer, such as Mosley, go into a house of prostitution for all that good stuff, AFTER receiving this direct warning? This show his judgement is seriously impaired.

Mosley's sexual proclivities wouldn't be an issue but for his father's place in history. When your father is an infamous British fascist, anti-Semite and admirer of Adolf Hitler, you don't play "concentration camp" with your sexual partners. If you do, it shows a shocking lack of conscience and human empathy for millions of victims--and it certainly raises suspicion that you're a sociopath.

Good for him. Why should he modify his private behaviour?
The sooner the tabloids and governement and prudes realise that it is perfectly normal and sane and acceptable to be a bit kinky, the better.

What I fail to see is how his sexual indiscretions have any sort of impact on how he conducts his business.
Whatever he does in the privacy of a hotel room with two hookers in nazi outfits is not of my concern, at the end of the day as long as cars end up on the track I'll be happy.

Maybe he did curtail his "bizarre sexual activities." Those are the one's we're NOT hearing about, LOL.
