Problem I have with it Giblet, is that he acted for his own ends, and not that of the team he was at.
He wanted the info to take with him to Honda.
I'll stop harping on...
Nope. But I would have more sympathy for him.Hangaku wrote:So, just to be clear, you're saying that if he was instructed by his team to do this deal with the Ferrari employee, that wouldn't have been so bad?
McLaren's massive fine was purely an act of spite by Max against Ron. Nothing more, nothing less. A small (compared to $100m) fine would have done. Or a small race ban e.g. BAR Honda's fuel tank cheat.JohnsonsEvilTwin wrote: Suggesting to me McLarens 100 million fine was way excessive, and Coughlan far too lenient.

But for clearer perspective, true sportsmen don't cheat.
