+ people who don't hate McLaren and think a complete ban would have been too harsh. :D

Because they cheated.

The joke is unreal, amazing. LH and FA are allowed to win the title with a car that is illegal.
FIA is a bunch of spineless maggots.
LH and FA - Cheaters

Whatever the outcome of this plenty would be unhappy.

I think McLaren were punished for being in possesion of the Ferrari docs, not for using it.

Well at least I don't have to change my pickem's now! :D

I'd like to know how they arrived at this verdict. What was the evidence? Who said/did what?

In my opinion a sane decisions. The cheaters are caught and punished. The drivers, who are not to blame, are spared.

Something for everybody i guess. I hope to read the verdict soon.

Lets face it, its not the end of the Saga. I can't see McLaren not appealing the fine and such....
