I wasn't gonna say, but yeah that was my first thought too when this news got out. It had to have been someone high up.

Guys, there is no conspiracy here, it was found out by a small German lab by accident when lab tests showed different results than the official tests. That started an investigation which led to the whole mess we have now. Piech obviously knew what was coming and therefore tried to kick Winterkorn out of office but he couldn't publicly tell about it because at that point investigations in the US were still ongoing.
Beautiful response from Manor. Top class 
High risk that somebody in support race will die from boredom during crawl on that long straight

A 100% Peter P car design and an on song Honda PU = race winning machine. McLaren Honda would have won this season if they were allowed to fix their ERS, Button says the issue is an easy fix but due to the retarded token system they couldn't do shit.
Next season we're going to see a Honda/Brawn leap in performance. I wouldn't be surprised if McLaren Honda and its drivers take both championships.
hmmmm
That's what he's always been saying.
EDIT: I see you corrected your mistake. THIS POST IS NOW REDUNDANT
I'm faster than McLaren-Honda.

Teams with 3 cars? With RB out, it'll be an all-Merc podium.
Employee that's also a major shareholder. So no, unless he wanted to lose a ton of money.

Oh man. Looks like Ferrari weren't interested in giving in to Red Bull. Going to be an interesting few months of PR from both sides. Though now that Red Bull have already thrown Renault under the bus and Renault are looking at their own works team, what does this mean for Red Bull is Renault really do buy out Lotus? Second tier Renault engines for Red Bull?
I cant even begin to imagine it.
Will Red Bull chuck an almighty wobbly and just sit out some races until the contract is finished with F1 I wonder?

Funny, we can almost say the same about Alonso's Minardi Honda.

I have 3 words for you, twenty fucking twelve.
Interesting enough, there was an article a couple days ago saying the opposite is more likely.

It was discovered by some American scientists.
I'm tired of your nonsense, buddy.

He can drink all the cracked out McHonda Kool Aid he wants, he's the only one trying to get on that space ship.
I thought this was the start of the scandal?

Can't read that article, but the guys from the ICCT were interviewed regularly by German media over the last weeks. The ICCT apparently has locations in the US too, so that's probably the root of the confusion. I think the actual experiments were conducted in Berlin, but it was probably joint work across their locations.
I see.
Lessons learnt from Bianchi accident:
GP3? Who cares.
No way they drove in those conditions, surely?

Part of me says "well, Hamilton to Mercedes sounded that implausible when he first called it" and then the sane part of me goes "no, that's just fucking stupid".
Red Bull taking over VW motorsport makes a certain amount of sense. With all the trouble VW's dealing with, I can see them trying to offload side devisions to cover losses.
It certainly didn't help Brabham when Bernie took control of F1.
Red Bull buying F1 would be the best thing that could happen to the sport. They'd actually have an online presence, probably have web streaming, they'd be able to make sure the regs aren't crap.
CVC does literally nothing for the sport other than collect it's pay-cheques, Red Bull would make the sport active again.
I hope its true, actually. Although we'd probably still have to put up with Bernie.
The VW rumour makes a little more sense though.
