What's more, yesterday morning he had to appear on a special press conference to defend himself from news emerged in most-read newspapaper in Spain, El Pais.

The El Pais information, which supposedly came from filtrations of the judicial indictment, claimed that Camps had received suits, worth estimated in 30.000€, from people now being accused of this major corruption plot and supposedly in exchange of some favors. No formal accusation by justice has been made yet, though this is not the first time corruption suspicions regarding Camps appear in the media.

At the same time Madrid Mayor, Alberto Ruiz Gallardón, admitted that a similar case, this time being an illegal favor treat in public business concessions to some enterprises involved in this corruption case, had happened in their administration, and they were investigating and looking to solve this issue.

All this news however, don't emerge as a surprise, as Mr. Camps implemented already a rule change in the internal status of the Valencian PP, which meant no longer a party member had to resign when being accused by the justice, but instead just when they are jailed or declared guilty. This happened just after Castellón council chief, Carlos Fabra, was taken to court for multiple corruption issues, of a different plot. Interestingly Fabra and Camps are close friends, and have mutually supported when an internal PP party "war" happened in the region between sides of Zaplana, former Valencia region president, and Camps, the current.

So how can all this affect the European GP in Valencia?

Well, we have to remember Camps has been the most public face of the creation of the Street Circuit race in Valencia, and he has been one of the leading figures in the negotiations with Bernie Ecclestone. Even Ecclestone has claimed being good friend of camps, and enjoying his conversations with him.The other party, the progressive PSOE, which governs the country under Mr. Zapatero, is however in the opposition of the Valencia region, and despite they vowed to be against the Street Circuit creation, it is unlikely that they will re-gain the local government, unless further justice actions force government changes.

Given that local elections won't be till 2011, and that PP still hold absolute majority, it is unlikely that the GP would be cancelled. Even if PSOE re-gain local government, we doubt they would try to cancel the F1 agreement, given the economical and image benefits the event brings to Valencia.

However in either way, there could be some details that could  change, for example the ones affecting the environment, which was a major controversy before the circuit was built, or other aspects regarding it's organization.

As soon as further news emerge, we will update you.
