Of course, the Prosecution may well be able to prove beyond reasonable doubt that this line of defence is inadequate and they may well have the evidence to prove that Stepney not only did what is alleged but is also lying now in his defence.
But even as a fully paid-up member of the Tifosi, I want Stepney's trial to be fair.
If he is found guilty, I want the little Judas to be dragged around every town in Italy before being strung up on the nearest lamp-post, but for now I do not have a problem with his lawyer trying every angle and every argument she can.
Bam!
These chaps are "as thick as thieves"! The net is closing in!

Full statement:
McLaren Racing has today [Wednesday] continued its co-operation with enquiries instigated by the Modena Magistrate.
The Surrey Police accompanied Italian investigators to the homes of a number of McLaren executives as part of their ongoing investigation. A similar process has been performed at the McLaren Technology Centre.
The police are completely satisfied with the co-operation they have received.
These actions are part of a normal judicial process in connection with the ongoing investigation, and are supported by McLaren Racing

Undoubtedly the Kingpin of the operation will be revealed as one
Nigel Stepney.
Only a criminal mind as sinister as his could hatch such a plot!
The entire conspiracy is unraveling before us!
‘Tis tangled webs we weave! :D
Material taken from the team "will fit into the ample picture of evidence"
from which "clearly emerges the responsibilities of the management
and some technicians
at a high level in McLaren", a police statement said.

Is it a co-ink-y-dink that the Italian police brake up a Ferrari Counterfeiting ring
right after they interview Ron, and Marty, with Stepney having cracked a few days earlier, and spilled the beans?
I can see it now. Just like in the movie "To Have and Have Not" Humphrey Bogart has turned the tables
on the Vichey Gestapo in Port du France (on the island that is now known as the Dominican Republic)
He's already assisted the Free French Underground, and just wants his boat back, his side kick (Walter Brennan)
and his babe, (Lauren Bacall) to get a letter of passage to leave the harbor for Florida.
These Gestapo thugs aren't co-operating. Well, ones dead! So Bogey sits the other two down under some hot lights
takes the hog-iron he shot the first one with, smacks a vase shattering it and says
"You'll break just as easy as that did! I'm going to beat the answers out of both of you if I have to.
That means one of you is going to take a beating for nothing! I think I'll start
with you first,” he says to the arrogant one!
Yea' ! It probably happened just like that! :)
Given the lengthy amount of time the police have had to investigate it will be interesting to see what conclusions they reach in comparison with the FIA's findings. Will anything new ever come to light?
Maybe the Italian Authorities will be able to pin responsibility for Ayrton's death on McLaren.....Quote:

The McLaren team have slammed as "grossly inaccurate and misleading" claims from the Italian police that they had found evidence that showed the responsibility of certain members of the team in the spying affair.
"...the Italian police have not yet even been given access to any of the material taken, nor have they even started to review that material. We would be extremely surprised if the review of the documentation reveals anything which has not already been disclosed as a result of the extensive investigations already carried out."
"McLaren Racing believes that due process needs to be respected and that the conduct of an investigation process should not be construed adversely or used for publicity purposes."
"It should be noted that none of the extensive searches or investigations completed to date have produced any evidence that the Ferrari documents which Mr Nigel Stepney handed over to Mr Michael Coughlan were ever passed to anyone else at McLaren Racing or used on the McLaren Formula One car."
