SimonB Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 I actually read most of the transcript - it's on the FIA website (hey, I was bored ). There's no doubt there was not enough evidence to show they had used any Ferrari info obtained illegally. It would never have stood up in a criminal court. The FIA in fact never said they had found evidence of using it - they just said they were minded to give a penalty. The "extra" new evidence was just the fact that Stepney had sent Coughlan a load of text messages - they didn't have the contents so they could be about anything. Plus the drivers emails, which didn't really prove anything apart from the fact that De la Rosa was asking Coughlan for some info about Ferrrari - most of it was the sort of thing you might expect the guy to know anyway from analysing video etc. It only mentions Stepney once and since he was an old friend of Coughlan it doesn't seem that odd they would gossip about things - I'm sure that's what De la Rosa thought. Very harsh indeed, the whole thing to me looked like Max flexing his muscles and rubbing Ron's nose in it as much as possible. Especially given his comments afterwards.
