**Breaking news**

Briatore and Pat symonds have both left Renault with immediate effect and will not answer race fixing allegations!

Me thinks two guys have just screwed thier team over!

Cheating b*stards!

fook!

Flav being a cowardly snivelling cheat doesn't really suprise me but i thought better of Symonds.

what now? Renault kicked out and banned from next year?

EDIT: http://www.itv-f1.com/news_article.aspx?id=46901

looks like renault may be banned from F1 for good.

I know what you mean - I kinda liked Pat Symmonds. He looked like one of those 50+ guys that would still stay up drinking and smoking with the younger team members!

Well as it is Renault rather than Briatore and Symmonds accused of race fixing, Renault still have to go in front of the WMC.

I still don't think Renault were in on or knew about it.

you should be a lawyer , thats one pretty convincing argument you've got there!  :grin:

Flav is , to all intents and purposes ,Renault in F1 , he's done a bunk so he doesn't have to face up to it and Renault are not denying it or putting forward any defence case.

pretty damning stuff if you ask me.

You missed my point, if Flav and the team were under pressure to get Results, they then chose to do what they did etc, Renault are hardly going to tell flav and the boys to cheat are they, yes they have now owned up in a way they have no choice the book is going to be thrown at them but by holding hands up and sacking people they are trying to soften the blow.

ok, I didn't realise you meant Renault as in the "whole company" meaning head office level , i assumed you meant the F1 team which was run by Flav.
