FIA hearing - Mclaren out of WCC 2007 *merged*

[Flat.tyres]

Indeed it is, flat.tyres and other too, could you refraing using that sort of rhetoric, peoples feelings are just going to get hurt.

Really, for it to be a personal attack would mean that it was untrue.

Unless Tabburello can provide evidence to the contrary, perhaps we can have a vote on it

[Flat.tyres]

Hmmm.....is that not a personal attack?

[Flat.tyres]

But nowhere did I say that the FIA had to come to the conclusion that Stepney, Mclaren & yourself were looking for.

The FIA said that they would look at the floor at Melbourne. Unless you have evidence that you can back up with facts (not speculation or opinion) that the FIA looked at the floor, said it was illegal but it can stay on the car, then the only conclusion open is that, at the time of scrutineering, their investigation into the floor device was that is did not break the rules and was, for the rulebook at the time of the Australian GP, correct.

[Flat.tyres]

No it doesn't.......for Stepney or Mclaren.

I refer you to this, which it appears you are in agreement with and habve raised no concern about....

- Charlie Whiting says he will "look further into the subject" at the Australian GP.
- Stepney provides details of the floor to Coughlan and McLaren subsequently seek clarification from the FIA.
- Scrutineers pass the Ferrari as being legal at the Australian GP.

So neither Stepney nor Mclaren waited for the FIA verdict.

Neither Stepney nor Mclaren showed any respect for the rules of participation as laid down by the governing body.

Instead, Stepney leaked info to a rival team which then used the info.

Which makes them guilty BEFORE the FIA had given the device the investigation they said they were going to do.

So you are quite right, it does not look good.

Only it's not the FIA it doesn't look good for, it's your favourite team.

[Flat.tyres]

I think that you nailed it.

And my Coup de Gras is the FIA board meeting....

[Bagwan]

There's 5 more personal attacks .

Too much Flat.tyres .

How many points is that worth ?
