McLaren ya ha avanzado que no apelará
La Federación Internacional de Automovilismo ha confirmado que mañana viernes se cumple el plazo límite para que McLaren pueda apelar la sanción de 100 millones de dólares y la exclusión del Campeonato del Mundo de Constructores que le impuso el Consejo Mundial del Motor el pasado jueves.

La FIA lo ha confirmado hoy jueves en un comunicado de prensa tras las numerosas consultas que ha recibido por parte de la prensa internacional'.

"Tras consultar con la Secretaría del Tribunal de Apelación, la FIA entiende qeu el plazo límite para presentar la apelación expira el viernes 21 de septiembre a las 17:00," decía el comunicado.

McLaren ya retiraba a principios de semana la apelación que había presentado contra la penalización que recibió el equipo en el GP de Hungría.

El jefe del equipo McLaren, Ron Dennis, ha sugerido que quiere cerrar cuanto antes todo este tema y toda la polémica que ha afectado a su equipo.

Yo creo que McLaren quiere dejar quieto todo esto, le salio "barata" la broma

Ya tienen la imagen muy golpeada como para seguir apareciendo en juicios y seguir perdiendo.

Plata no les falta asi que calladitos mas bonitos

McLaren Racing has notified the FIA of its intention not to appeal the verdict of the World Motor Sport Council, as announced on 13th September 2007.

Having now had time to study the judgement of the World Motor Sport Council with its lawyers and shareholders, McLaren thinks it is in the best interests of the sport, and its goal of winning races and world championships, not to appeal.

It is clear from the full judgement that the World Motor Sport Council concluded that the charge that a McLaren employee had "unauthorised possession of documents and confidential information" was proven.

Despite the existence of no evidence that the information was applied, tested or shared with the engineering team (which it was not), this possession constitutes a breach of the Code.

To our regret and embarrassment, the content of the previously unknown emails demonstrated possession not being limited to a single person, albeit unsanctioned in any way by the team. For this breach of Article 151c, a very heavy penalty has been imposed on the team.

The major principle of the issue for McLaren is: this information was not used to gain advantage on its cars.

Moving forwards, and in consultation with our shareholders, we will now review and further strengthen our internal compliance structures and processes.

Ron Dennis said: "We believe the time has come to put this huge distraction behind us. McLaren wants to win races and World Championships. We are fortunate to have, and continue to receive, unwavering support from our employees, sponsor partners and Formula 1 fans across the world – all of whom are equally keen that we totally focus on winning this year's Drivers' Championship and the remaining three races of the season."
