Now, after warning back in January that he would walk away from F1 if the Caterham team’s performance on track didn’t improve, it looks like Fernandes is ready to walk away from Caterham altogether.

Something suitably Statesmanlike which continues to give ‘Mr President’ continuing gravitas. And, in Bill Clinton’s case, helps keep him out of mischief.
