McLaren boss Ron Dennis has expressed his frustration at the punishment handed out to his team on Thursday
Full statement from Ron Dennis:
“The most important thing is that we will be going motor racing this weekend, the rest of the season and every season. This means that our drivers can continue to compete for the World Championship. However having been at the hearing today I do not accept that we deserved to be penalised in this way.
“Today’s evidence given to the FIA by our drivers, engineers and staff clearly demonstrated that we did not use any leaked information to gain a competitive advantage.
“Much has been made in the press and at the hearing today of emails and text messages to and from our drivers. The World Motorsport Council received statements from Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton and Pedro de la Rosa stating categorically that no Ferrari information had been used by McLaren and that they had not passed any confidential data to the team.
“The entire engineering team in excess of 140 people provided statements to the FIA affirming that they had never received or used the Ferrari information.
“We have never denied that the information from Ferrari was in the personal possession of one of our employees at his home. The issue is: was this information used by McLaren? This is not the case and has not been proven today.
“We are also continually asked if McLaren didn’t use the information, what was the reason for Stepney and Coughlan collecting all this data about Ferrari? We can only speculate as neither Coughlan nor Stepney gave evidence at today’s hearing, but we do know that they were both seeking employment with other teams, as already confirmed by both Honda and Toyota.
“There will be no issue for the 2008 season as we have not at any stage used any intellectual property of any other team.
“We have got the best drivers and the best car and we intend to win the World Championship.”
GO! McLaren :up:
oppss… besides medals there were two trophies, if I’m not mistaken Their Championship Trophy and the other one i can’t recall.. ;(
[quote=naza][quote=TheFazz]
sounds ok. although the RM500 per team works to about RM250 per kart per hour… which is significantly lower than the A1TM and MAAU events i believe. are we ok with this?[/quote]
Wan Shin for some reason mentioned to keep it at RM240 so as not to so call “spoil the market”. I reckon the higher cost for MAAU and A1TM could include other things like some refreshments or prizes for instance?
Can someone who participated in those events confirm this.

The MAAC they charged RM80/driver = RM320/team…. i did saw few boxes of ‘mineral water’ for the participants & packed noodles and for the prizes they gave medals for the top 3 teams + a bottle of ‘sparkling wine’. The team with the fastest lap time also received a medal… err i believe that all :shy:

[quote=Nohad]I prefer Elite track more to CK track, more technical and variety of topography.
Favourite of all tracks —> Sepang karting track
For 100cc karts –> Raja Razman’s[/quote]
Yup! Elite is more fun 🙂 but not on their 4stroke :shy:
[quote=Nohad]Bro Naza & Luen, when want to do the 100cc chicken wing run at Elite?
They still rent the 100cc karts to the [b]privilege[/b] few like us? 😎 [/quote]Bro… their 80cc is also not bad. :up:
