So you reckon it would have been more credible if Lewis had won the Championship a month after the last race in court on an ambiguous technicality, on appeal lodged by a team that has been disqualified from this years championship for braking the rules...

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
No I'm not saying that, all I am saying is that this season they have been anti Mclaren, and very pro Ferrari.
What if the tables had been turned and Hamilton had won the race and Kimi had missed out by 1 point, and it was discovered later that McLaren has 'cooled' their fuel. FIA would have reject Ferrari's complaint.
I think not McLaren would have had the race results strip, handing Ferrari the Drivers Title.

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
I don't think so. The FIA would only have changed the result for an extremely grave breach of rules as any post championship change would have been bad for the sport. I would have been shocked if it had.
I agree that this year has not been a great one for the FIA they should have brought out a much more decisive verdict on the Stepneygate first time round, instead of coming out with the ridiculous half*rsed verdict of guilty but no punishment and then have to try and sort out the mess afterwards.
Would you have been watching next year if Hamilton had won ??

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
Problerly not.
I did metion a few posts ago about the email I sent to ITV, and the adverts they show.
This is the main reason that I will not be watching next year

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
Fair enough, but that (the ads) have nothing really to do with F1 it self. Their coverage is truly shocking non the less.

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
Yet another baffling decision by FIA Link
McLaren were good in saying they didn't want any team to suffer the punishment they did...

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
Not really FIA is very anti McLaren at the moment.

Re: Formula 1 Talk 2007 Season
Exactly the same verdict McLaren received for exactly the same crime, before it was discovered that they had used information from Ferrari.
As with the McLaren case the FIA have reserved the right to recall the case if new evidence comes to light. If this were to happen and Renault is found to have used information from McLaren (to their advantage) they should be punished accordingly.
P.S
I'm still of the opinion that both teams should have had a more decisive ruling and punishment for the crime committed in the first place. It would have been less messy in many ways (McLaren would have probably escaped with a lighter punishment and not gone to second hearing, and Renault would now have been punished for breaking the rules.)
