What were Bernie Ecclestone's odd comments about Hilter all about?

"I learnt so much doing [the F1 duties] and it was such a great experience for me to see how everything works, but to continue would have meant zero weekends free until November.
"I really appreciated doing it, but I haven't really had a good result this year so I need to focus on my racing.
"Jaime [Alguersuari] will have that opportunity to learn now, but I am not sure what options there will be for him to get into the car."

"I should also add that Mosley's people were very keen to agree with the view, a few weeks ago, that this was Max's "big play" – this was going to be his big career achievement, reforming Formula One's addiction to spending. He would stand or fall on this one. Well, he has certainly not won the day, so we have to assume that, by the estimates of his own staff, his credibility is now seriously in question. Normally in public life when people get it this wrong they have to consider their future."
