Former Renault team principal Flavio Briatore will claim Max Mosley was "blinded by an excessive desire for personal revenge".

He will be making this claim when his appeal against a lifetime ban from motor sport is heard in Paris later this month.

Mosley, the former president of the FIA, motor sport's governing body, chaired the panel which handed down the punishment to Briatore for his role in the scandal that led to Nelson Piquet Jnr deliberately crashing his car at the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix.

According to documents seen by the Guardian newspaper, Briatore will bid to have his ban from involvement in all FIA-endorsed events overturned and demand damages of just over £900,000 when his case is heard at the Tribunal de Grande Instance on November 24.

The newspaper also claims that Renault's former executive director of engineering Pat Symonds, also implicated in the Crashgate scandal, will join Briatore's appeal in an effort to have his five-year ban overturned.

Briatore will claim at the hearing that the FIA did not have legal grounds to issue him with a wholesale ban from motor sport, and that the extent of Mosley's role in the matter breached European laws concerning fair trials.

"The decisions to carry out an investigation and to submit it to the World Council were taken by the same person, Max Mosley, the FIA president," read a statement by Briatore reproduced in part by the Guardian.

The statement added that Mosley "assumed the roles of complainant, investigator, prosecutor and judge" in what Briatore claims was a breach of the "most basic rules of procedure and the rights to a fair trial".

Briatore's claim that the FIA World Council chaired by Mosley was "blinded by an excessive desire for personal revenge" stems from his involvement in plans for a breakaway series, an issue that rumbled on through much of last season before an agreement was reached for manufacturers to stay in Formula One.
