So, how do you repair your public image after an interview in which you praise Hitler? You blame the Jews for the financial crisis, that’s how.

Even now he’s had to cancel his personal appearance at the formal opening of this weekend’s German Grand Prix and who knows how many other races he won’t be welcome at.
