Max Mosley, the former president of motor racing's governing body, the FIA, has died aged 81.
Mosley headed up the FIA between 1993 and 2009 and played a pivotal role in pioneering improvements in safety standards after the deaths of Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
The son of controversial British politician Oswald Mosley, founder of the British Union of Fascists, and Diana Mitford, he said he chose a career in motor racing because no-one cared who his father was.
He had a brief career as a racing driver and took part in the Formula 2 race where Jim Clark was killed at Hockenheim in 1968.
