The reason for McLarens massive penalty was the fact they pleaded not guilty.

They pleaded not guilty because they were not aware of it. It was the drivers, De La Rosa passing info to Alonso he had obtained from Ferrari. It was actually Ron Dennis that picked up the phone to the FIA after that tw@t Alonso tried bribing Dennis with feeding the FIA with this info if he (Alonso) did not get his way within the team. That is why I have lost TOTAL respect for Alonso. Shame because I was watching his progress. Now I can't wait for his downfall.
Ron Dennis did the right thing and got clobbered for it. Renault pulled a massively dangerous stunt and just got a ticking off. Something is not right and it stinks.
Unfortunately, I am a little addicted to F1 purely for the racing. If I wasn't, I would stop watching it because of sh!t like this. :sad:

The bigger picture is F1 needs Renault they cannot afford another team walking away, they still might but at the end of the day F1 needs Renault, if they were banned it would have left only Cosworth, MB and Ferrari to supply engines.

and toyota

Renault have had to pay all the court costs and a contribution to the FIA safety fund. Don't reckon that would've been cheap...

It wouldn't have cost 100million dollars though. And the price could have been alot more if someone was killed in that farsacle crash.

I just love the way that Briatore f***ed over Piquet good and proper, and Piquet had this little gem in his pocket. When the time was right, he let fly and Briatore the dodgy b'stard will not work in F1 again.

Didn't think much of Piquet as a driver, but as a revenge merchant? He's awesome!  :grin: :grin: :grin:

Er Damon won a World Championship. You don't get those just cause of your name. Watched Damon's son Josh in Formula Ford on Sunday and he's pretty racy as well.
