ANOTHER BREAKING NEWS
NEWS CHANGED !!! FIA PROPOSE EXPULSION ONLY !! NOT CONFIRMED QUOTE According to reports on the BBC, the FIA's World Motor Sport Council has proposed that McLaren are excluded from the 2007 and 2008 World Championships. However, the corporation claims that the exact nature of the punishment which will be meted out is still being discussed. As such, Lewis Hamilton's World Championship bid may yet be rekindled, with McLaren expelled from the Constructors' Championship but both Alonso and Hamilton permitted to compete for the Drivers' title. The FIA has confirmed that a definitive verdict is now imminent. |

QUOTE(evofantasy @ Sep 14 2007, 12:40 AM) I LOLed.Must be joke QUOTE Ferrari Leak Phone Conversations To Press Ferrari have revealed that they have recovered detailed transcripts of phone conversations between Mike Coughlan and Nigel Stepney prior to the Monaco Grand Prix that prove Stepney was sabotaging the car. Stepney: "I am going to put some white powder in the fuel tank. That will stop their prancing horse right in its tracks. Coughlan: "Good, white powder in the fuel tank will certainly stop them from winning the Monaco Grand Prix - never mind their unsuitably long wheelbased car." Stepney: "You don't think that scrutineers might sample the fuel before the race - you know - like they always do." Coughlan: "Hmm, good point. Perhaps they won't this race. Go on do it. I'll give you 5. Stepney: "Make it a tenner." Coughlan: "I'll have to ask Ron for a tenner. Stepney: "Sorry got to go and grab a shower now." Coughlan: "Don't leave that white powder lying around, make sure you put it in your pockets while you're having that shower. Ferrari will present their transcripts to the WMC in Paris on Thursday. "This just goes to prove that Ron Dennis is a mass murderer and abuses chickens," said Ferrari spokesman (and George from Seinfeld lookalike) Luca Colajanni.

An hour after the initial reports broke, there is still no official confirmation that McLaren-Mercedes has been excluded from the 2007 and 2008 seasons.
It is now being suggested that the two-year disqualification was just an official proposal of the World Motor Sport Council, and the 26-man body was subsequently due to vote. Also rumoured in the Spa-Francorchamps paddock, some three hours' drive away from Paris, is that the Woking based team will indeed be excluded from the constructors' championship, with Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton still eligible to battle for the drivers' crown. What is clear late on Thursday afternoon is that Hamilton travelled to Spa-Francorchamps after leaving the Paris hearing, but predictably made no comment as he strolled from the paddock gates to the McLaren motor home. Former McLaren driver David Coulthard commented to the British broadcaster ITV: "I think what we have to do is be very clear in understanding whether the actions of a few are sufficient to bring down a whole company. "I know Ron Dennis and therefore the McLaren ethos when it comes to the way they compete -- and it's not one of 'let's take that rule and bend it, and turn it back on itself'. "I also believe that Norbert Haug and Mercedes-Benz have a very high level of sporting integrity. I spent nine years with them, the board members, the chairmen and so on - they are responsible to a lot of shareholders and the way German companies operate, I cannot believe for one moment that they would poach information from rival teams or use it if it fell into their hands," he said. The Scot also acknowledged the possibility of a heavy sanction for McLaren, but reckoned that championship leader Lewis Hamilton would take it in his stride. "I don't know many drivers who fall into deep depression because you've got to move forward," the Red Bull racer quipped. from f1-live.com This post has been edited by TamiyaOne: Sep 14 2007, 01:36 AM |

McLaren out of Constructors, but drivers safe
http://www.planet-f1.com/story/0,18954,3213_2726904,00.html QUOTE McLaren have been booted out of this year's Constructors' Championship, however, their drivers are free to race for the World title. That was the verdict handed down by the FIA's World Motor Sport Council following today's Stepneygate hearing in Paris. McLaren were called to appear before the WMSC for the second time after new evidence came to light, suggesting that McLaren had made use of the Ferrari documents they were previously found guilty of being in possession of. After hours of deliberation, the WMSC ruled that McLaren were to be stripped off their 2007 Constructors' Championship points as well as fined $100m - a record amount in F1. The final part of the ruling is that the team's 2008 cars will be subject to examinations before racing next season. However, on the upside, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso will face no points-penalties and will be allowed to fight for this year's Drivers' Championship title. Hamilton is leading the battle on 92 points, three ahead of Alonso. This post has been edited by james2306: Sep 14 2007, 01:39 AM |
