Former McLaren CEO Ron Dennis found himself on the receiving end of some choice words from former FIA President Max Mosley in the aftermath of the infamous "Spygate" scandal in 2007. The duo were often seen butting heads against each other in their battle to fight for the heart and soul of Formula One from 1992 to 2007 with both entities having several personality clashes.

At the turn of the century, Dennis alleged Mosley had failed to display "impartiality and independence" while serving as the head of the governing body of the sport, and claimed he favored Ferrari. He also claimed that Mosley was jealous of his achievements as team principal in F1 given the latter's time with March in the '60s. The team failed to win a world championship and won two races across its time in the sport, which lasted more than two decades under different names.
