Former FIA chairman Max Mosley speaks to the press after attending the publication of the Leveson report into press ethics in central London on November 29, 2012. A major inquiry called for new laws to underpin a tougher watchdog for Britain's "outrageous" newspapers in a move that threatens to split Prime Minister David Cameron's coalition government. The Leveson Inquiry was set up in July 2011 in the wake of revelations over phone hacking by the News Of The World newspaper.

- Google and ex-Formula One boss Max Mosley have settled a dispute over images from a sadomasochistic orgy he took part in, the US tech giant and Mosley's German lawyer said. "The dispute is settled, to the satisfaction of both sides," German lawyer Tanja Irion told AFP, confirming a report by Spiegel news weekly to be published Saturday. She said Mosely, 75, had commented that "the agreement is confidential ... I'm happy and I do not want to jeopardise it". A court in Hamburg, Germany had in January last year ruled that the US technology firm must prevent the pictures being shown on its German-based google.de site, two months after a similar ruling in France. The German court said the six images taken from a video of the orgy that was filmed by Britain's now defunct News of the World tabloid seriously breached Mosley's privacy.
