Great Formula 1 Story- Ferrari/McLaren Scandal

[jdoggg12]

Too much to copy/paste.

Here

I knew the rivalry was fierce, but this is the kind of stuff you usually only see in movies. Very well written article.

Cliffs please.
So far I found out that the wife of some dude went into a copy shop and copied a bunch of shit, Then upon seeing 8 more pages of crap I gave up, oh look a penny.

Long story short:
Ferrari is a cult of a company. Someone wanted to break out of the cult, shenanigans ensued, Ferrari was found to be cheating and the FIA ignored them, person sent someone 780 pages of crap. Ferrari fan finds it, McLaren gets pwned.

The only thing more rabid than F1 fans in Europe is Futbol fans. Raiders fans take a distant third.

story was long, but an interesting read nonetheless.

if they win the drivers/contrustors(sp) title, they'll drive the F1 cars down woking high street, like last time

- Ferarri guy gets passed over for promotion, gets pissed
- rats out ferarri cheating to mclaren who tattles to FIA
- FIA says yes ferarri was cheating, who cares they are ferarri and have s&m pics of FIA chief*
- mclaren boss doesn't want to be seen as stealing info tells his guys to not talk to ferarri
- pissed ferarri guy sends his buddy at mclaren the entire design for ferarri's '07 car, guy accepts
- mclaren guy's wife takes the docs to local copy shop, run by ferarri fan.
- meanwhile mclaren guy shares the stolen info among the mclaren engineers and drivers, team gains some advantages
- FIA finds out about the mclaren team using the stolen info, nukes mclaren for 100mil and DQ'd from '07 constructor championship
- ferarri wins driver championship too, by 1 point
- mclaren owner pissed, life a shambles
- later mclaren gets some S&M pics of FIA chief and outs him in retaliation*

cliff cliffs:
Mclaren gets designs stolen from Ferarri
Ferarri wins
Mclaren loses
FIA chief is a perv*

*my own personal guesses

i liked the line "FIA stands for Ferrari International Assistance"

Mclaren got what they deserved, anyone who knows there stuff knows the MP4-23 ( this years car) had ferrari IP on it and they had to take those parts off /stop developing them...Whole thing is a joke
