This is a disappointment to auto racing.

In a show of who has the most control in world motorsport, this ruling makes it extremely obvious how tight the FIA and Ferrari are; going after the entire team McLaren, minus the drivers for their implicating testimony, banning the team from the constructors title, issuing a horrendous fine, when the two actual perps were simply fired. Whiskey tango foxtrot?! Where's the fines for Stepney, and Coughlin? Where's the hard proof that McLaren actually benefited from the leaked secrets, or will benefit from them in '08?

Max Moseley is seeing his revenge for the '05 USGP. That's got to be the reason for that hard a penalty.

So, since McLaren has done well this season, and the FIA, plus the World Motorsport Council ruled that they may have capitalized on spied secrets from the Scuderia, then perhaps McLaren should teach Ferrari how to use their own technology.
