I doubt Flavio will find employment and I think Symonds indicated no desire to return to F1 even if he was given one.

perfectly summed up and agreed.

I don't think a lifetime ban is a "ridiculous" penalty for conspiring to have one of your drivers crash intentionally (endangering his life and the lives of other competitors).

[Spygate] was a minor indiscretion by junior members of the organisation that got amplified into a bigger issue,’ says Dennis, in an interview with Esquire magazine. It wasn’t the way it was portrayed. As always, with the passing of time, the truth will come out.

Maybe he can pick up some of the sponsors that ditched Tiger. :p :

As I have stated many times previously - the FIA decsion was unjust, vindictive and carried out by a power and not a court.

For the first time justice WAS carried out in this case and I say congratulations to Flavio.

Any team should take on the services of a manager that understands how to win championships and is the one that led both Schumacher and Alonso to double title wins.

The probability of this decision being overturned is zero.

The FIA is a capricious paranoid and overbearing organization - legalizing secret versions of cheating - the secret Ferrari veto - while aiming at its perceived enemies - Ron Dennis and Flavio Briatore - and trying to destroy them with its power - the $100 million fine and the prevention of Flavio to work.

Anyone supporting the FIA action is no different to them and the next time it takes action through its stewards or any other means do not be hypocritical and condemn the FIA.

Vive le justice!!!

Ron Dennis can spin it anyway he wants. The Facts all point to the fact that his organization OBTAINED, POSSESSED & USED STOLEN PROPERTY.

The incident in Singapore pales in Comparison.

Tony, they only had those Ferrari docs to look at them and have a good read, they weren't trying to gain any advantage! Honest!
