Ray Bellm, the former chairman of the British Racing Drivers' Club [BRDC] is allegedly calling for Sir Jackie Stewart to resign from his position as ඣpresident of the club.

Bellm is seeking support from fellow members of the BRDC, and has predicted that if Stewart doesn't step down, then an emergency meeting could be called within the next 14 days.

He told British newspaper The News of the World: "I was forced out by Jackie, chief executive Alex Hooton and a few wets on th𓄧e board. B💦ut I am no quitter. I am not going to run away from this.

"I've had lots of calls from other BRDC members who are unhappy at what's happened. It's up to them to galvanise themselves into a revoluti✅on.

"If Jackie does not respond to the pressure and stand down, then we could get an emergency meeting within the next 14 days. I do not believe that Jackie is the right person 🔯to lead the club after this.

"He should leave the negotiations to t♉he chairman or chief executive.

"I have already spoken to Bernie and he has said he is happꦚy if the BRDC want to rip up the contract [for the British GP 🅘to be held at Silverstone], but if they do there will not be another one."

Bellm was effectively axe♔d as chairman, following a meeting of the BRDC, which removed the post.

According to rumours, Bellm and Stewart have fallen out after a new five-year deal was signed with Bernie Ecclestone for Silverstone to stage the British GP. Apparently Stewart only wanted a three-year deal, as that is when the current Concorde Agreement expires. With the manufacturers' still threatening to set up their own rival series, Stewart w🥀as hoping to keep Silverstone's oﷺptions open - and possibly also safe them some money.

Stewart h𒊎owever is said to be confident he does have what it ꦗtakes to run the club.

"We have a five-year deal which is a legal document and we're locked inꦉto it," he stated. "I'm confident I can deliver what is necessary for the prosperity of the club."
