(GMM) Sir Jackie Stewart fears he may be kicked out as president and director of the BRDC next Thursday.
The triple F1 champion, 65, told the 'Herald' newspaper that an 'appalling' campaign against him has been waged, ostensibly by ousted chairman Ray Bellm.
''To be honest, I am not ... confident of surviving this vote,'' he said of next Thursday's meeting at Silverstone, where the BRDC will promote the British GP in July.
''It's clear that I am being confronted with bully-boy tactics,'' Jackie opined, ''but that's made me doubly determined.''
Stewart said he campaigned hard, for example by visiting England's Downing Street, to save the historic Silverstone race.
''So I won't lie down meekly,'' he blasted.
