¿A nadie le parece esta respuesta increíble?

Q: Why was McLaren only stripped of the constructor’s points and not those of their drivers. If something isn’t right with the cars then the results of the drivers who drove those cars cannot be right either. Ferrari’s Luca di Montezemolo said that if Alonso or Hamilton becomes champion today they should thank Ferrari’s engineers…

MM: This is Luca’s view. McLaren would definitely not agree…

Q: And you?

MM: When McLaren was stripped of their constructor’s points it would have had a certain logic to also slash the drivers’ championship points. But the majority of the World Council was of different opinion.

Q: Why?

MM: It was a decision of logic versus emotion. Logic would have demanded to slash all points, but emotion was not willing to wreck such an incredible championship with an armchair judgment. If McLaren had objected to the verdict it could have happened. But they didn’t. Though, I would have excluded McLaren from the championship before. There is a legal rule of thumb in the UK: emotional judgments produce weak findings. There’s no doubt that I have sympathy for Hamilton and Alonso, but that fundamental decision rendered by the World Council could haunt us one day.
