Former F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone says the sport's new owners, Liberty Media, want to remove him from the history books.
When Liberty's takeover was completed earlier this year Ecclestone, who controlled the sport for four decades, was moved into the role of chairman emeritus. His former job has been split into different parts, with Ross Brawn in charges of the sporting regulations and Sean Bratches working on the commercial side, with both reporting to new chief Chase Carey.
Ecclestone, who wanted to stay on as CEO for another year, feels like the new owners are trying to minimise the influence he has on the future direction of the sport.
