So who is Team FIAT going to bltch and whine since the "new secret nose" was leaked with drawings to a Italian magazine Autosprint ten weeks ago?

This time it wasn't the Mac boys.

Pretty damn funny. Guess spying does happen in F1 imagine that.

the thing is mclaren had ferrari knowledge in a manual that was only for ferrari. This is different as ppl will see it and probably could figure out what it will do, but every car has a different set up. so this new nose will not work with everyone's car and its aerodynamics.

Wow! Ferrari is always ahead of the curve! I bet the McCheaters didn't have this page from the Ferrari book!


Rumor is the copy boy who discovered the leak pulled that one out, hoping to sell it to McCheaters this season...

I still go to bed wondering about that copy guy. I just can't imagine how Ferrari must have expressed their gratitude for him telling them he has Mrs. Coughlan in his store duplicating secret documents...
