I'm surprised at how well written that article is. I had lost faith in Planet F1 a while back for shoddy reporting but this article seems to be well thought through for the most part.
It is better to have won a WDC and be critized than not to have won at all...
Indeed a good article.
The car is more important than the driver as LH will find out
True that this is a good article, providing a very insitefull view of all that has happened, it clearly shows that McLaren, Ferrrai, Renault, Honda, Williams and countless other teams have always bent the rules but it seems when some teams do it they are just innovative while others are called cheaters. I do agree that Ferrari's deficit this season has more to do with their reliability and lack of good finishing positions than to any of the other matters.

Agree entirely with your last sentence... That seems to be lost in this whole spy scandal nonsense.
Ferrari has implemented many innovations that have been grey where they have not been accused of cheating so I'm not sure that it's fair to say that we've labeled them as cheaters for that reason alone. It does seem that Ferrari always has something in the pipeline that creates controversy and that's where the label comes from. BMW had the same issue last year but they seem to have cleaned their act up after the flexi-floor episode.

Great article!
I'm not trying to beat a dead horse, but FERRARI of all teams is the last one that should be calling anybody else cheaters. I can't even begin to imagine if schumi were still driving. With what kind of a face would he even speak? Shameless.
Do you have to keep laughing???

Well, If MS had been driving, this thing would not have happened. 
Luck is nothing but the meeting point of your alertness and the oppurtunities passing by.

That was my first thought as well... I'd given up on Planet F1 but it's really quite hard to argue with most of what's presented in this article. It is quite well written.

Well, Ferrari have started to leak to the press again. They are trying to build up a media pressure on the council preventing them from taking a fair decition. Italian press aready stating that the new "evidence is crushing". Ferrari taktics is really disgusting!

The leaks appeared because the document file had been distributed to all WMSC members

I read the article but can't figure out what the "strange white powder" was found near the car??
