Today, responding to a suggestion from Eurosport journalist Stéphane Vrignaud that the public felt the penalties handed out in Australia were too severe, Quesnel said: "The public is right. As for us, we are still in shock. An administrative error has been punished by a sporting penalty and I do not understand why."
What public? I've gotten completely opposite picture from the case...
Penalties were too severe? LOL.
Yeah I think that's a bit rich. Although I don't believe Citroen did anything which was outrageously wrong, they did break the rules and were penalised. End of story.....Quote:

Now it's obvious that there was no cheating going on and I'm sure all the people who were on here preaching about cheating etc etc will come back say how wrong they were and so on and so forth? :rotflmao:
P.S Thanks for the link :)Quote:
the part itself had already been homologated but that the team never noticed that a picture of the part used on the cars in Australia was missing from the official papers.
I never come back to say that the the french are not wrong.
They spoil still the future from WRC and even F1. http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/r...olleye0012.gif
I think you'll find that Flabio Briatore is Italian and Pat Symonds is British :rolleyes: But don't let the truth get in the way of your illogical anti-French sentiments :pQuote:
