FORMULA ONE SHENANIGANS AND NFL SHENANIGANS. The National Football League Commisioner is reported by ESPN to be considering penalties on the New England Patriots for using TV cameras to steal defensive signals of opponents. The Yahoo! Sports article says, “According to the [ESPN] report, Commissioner Roger Goodell is considering “severe” sanctions, which include the possibility of penalizing New England multiple draft picks because the team has been suspected of previous videotaping violations.” In the meantime, here is a report that McLaren have been fined one hundred million dollars and thrown out of the 2007 constructors’ championship for theft of Ferrari intellectual property. The NFL thinks of the loss of draft picks as “severe” sanctions. Formula One has a different perspective.

Wow! This is news to me. I’ve been staying off of ITV’s site until I’d caught up with the races. The last I heard there was an investigation into whether Ferrari’s chief mechanic had sold secrets. I also wonder why McLaren would bother with lifting technology from Ferrari, since they’ve not exactly been the class of the field this year.
I can’t wait to hear what Ron Dennis has to say. He often takes the moral high ground against Ferrari.
