Bernie feels the Christmas love with an Ace up his sleeve

40

Living his daily life inside the family bubble, Bernie Ecclestone hunkered down at his posh retreat in Gstaad for Christmas along with his better half Fabiana and the couple's baby son Ace.

The 90-year-old former F1 supremo admittedly doesn't look a day over 70 as he cuddles up. Indeed, he may even be aging in reverse.

So, what's Mr. E's natural secret to beating the constantly-ticking aging clock? Get off the couch and put an Ace up your sleeve!

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
