FIA president Max Mosley has called an Extraordinary General Assembly meeting of motor racing's governing body to discuss the fallout of the tabloid revelations into his private life.
On the back of a raft of calls for the FIA to take action over the matter, Mosley has asked the president of the FIA Senate to arrange the meeting for the earliest possible date.
In a statement issued by the FIA on Thursday, it said: &quot;The full membership of the FIA will be invited to attend the meeting at which the widespread publicity following an apparently illegal invasion of the FIA President's privacy will be discussed.
&quot;The FIA has noted that Mr Mosley is preparing legal proceedings against the newspaper in question.
&quot;It is anticipated that the meeting will take place in Paris. It will be held on the earliest practicable date. No further comments will be made by the FIA regarding the matter at this stage.&quot;
The move by Mosley comes after Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Honda Racing and Toyota all issued statements expressing their unease at the stories of Mosley's private life that appeared in the News of the World last week.:wondering:

Aparentemente, Ferrari, Mclaren, Renault, Williams, Toro Rosso e Force India não têm problemas com o Mosley... :notrust:

Comentários adicionais do Mario Theissen (BMW):

&quot;&quot;Having been in F1 for nine years now, I am not surprised about anything any more,&quot; said Theissen. &quot;But let me add one other thing. This entire issue is in focus now, but what shouldn't be neglected is it certainly looks like a trap. And that is something which in our view is not acceptable either.&quot;
