Fair, honest and straight - Ecclestone

By on

Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone is satisfied with the outcome of the World Motor Sport Council hearing today. The McLaren Mercedes F1 Team received a postponed three-race ban for the lie-gate scandal which will be cancelled if no similar incident involving the team takes place between now and the end of April 2010.

Ecclestone referred to the punishment as "Fair and honest and straight." The Formula One supremo added: "They knew they did something wrong so they got a slap."
