Max Mosley said later that the fine was given because " 10 percent of it was because they cheated and 90 percent was because Ron Dennis is a dick".

It’s crazy how some many people have heard the scandal story but not about stepney’s death. It does seem like f1 and Ferrari worked hard to keep his name away from the sport.

[adamcollingburn]

I heard this story 20 times and never knew Stepney took his own life - RIP 😞

[klepetar]

with the cash he probably got for the document..he could have just bought a photocopier and copy the damn thing himself.. what an idiot

That scandal had indirectly led to another - Crashgate.

seen so many videos on this topic, but this is definitely the most concise, entertaining way i’ve heard it told. keep it up!!!

Mclaren werent fined for having data, a common misconception. When they were found to have had ferrari data, no fine was brought. They were fined for lying to the fia, after alonso proved they did use the data after mclaren told the fia they had not

You know the car is rare when a Bugatti Chiron is just sitting in the background getting absolutely no attention.

Thank you for making such great F1 content. This was the best video on this topic that I’ve seen and it is so refreshing to see an F1 channel that isn’t a rumor mill. It seems all other F1 channels and media are purely drama-driven and clickbait these days.

I went to school with a kid called Stepney, he said his dad worked for McLaren and I always thought he was talking shit. I thought anyone competent enough to be high up in a leading F1 team couldn't possibly create such a knob of a son, really not so sure nowadays.

It was not many decades before this fiasco that teams knew virtually everything about each others cars. One engine manufacturer could get their hands on anotfhers offering and test it on their own dyno to see what was what and not what was claimed. It was a lot cheaper to run a car back then.

1:35 adrian newey... dominance follow this mans creations

[realityhijack]

[smith]

This is the best video on this subject. I remember this very well and also during the Japanese Grand Prix in that year was when my daughter was born.

Hey, i remember when this story began. We followed it closely and I have to say that you have done an amazing job telling this twisted History. Thanks very much. Now ill LIKE and SUB. to your channel. Keep up the great quality and your channel will grow. I've been an F1 fan since Jim Clark won the Indy 500, mid '60s. We attended every F1 Race in Montreal from 1980 to 2014, serious F1 lovers. Best of luck to you on YouTube

F1 has been corrupt for years, and it’s not going to change. Look at what Bernie Ecclestone has got away with. It’s a shame for the sport and the fans.
