Another controversy was the indecent involving the former head of the FIA Max Mosley. The now defunct liberal gossip newspaper, News of the World, published a story in which they accused Max Mosley of organizing and participating in a number of immoral and Nazi themed events. These accusations caused a lot of concern within certain national sporting bodies and greatly damaged the road safety campaign that was being organised to save lives in developing countries as well as driving a number of key potential sponsors away from the sport. It was later found that these accusations be false and were made so the newspaper could sell more editions.
