    The Brit working at the copy center that the Ferrari dossier was made into multiple copies by McLaren employee Coughlin, and then told Ferrari what he saw, thus Stephneygate, is being invited by Montezemlo to Mugello and the Ferrari factory.

    Yes, I applied at Kinko's yesterday. Hoping the dossier for Super Aguri may come through so I can understand why Sato is one of the few drivers that passed Alonso this year.

    It's the least they can do, the guy guaranteed them the constructor's and driver's titles, Kinko's man should have the next 599 off the line.

    they might just give him a 599 or a Scuderia, for being a true Tifosi

    Wouldn't it be funny if this copy guy gave 'other' copies to another team and that team did a better job than McLaren at keeping their mouth shut ... :D :D :D :D :D :D

    It's a win win situation for this guy ;)

    He has been invited to come to all the futiure gatherings. He came to F60 celebrations with his entire family courtesy of Ferrari.

    He deserved it and I am happy for him.

    ...tell me about it, KINKO is under FedEx control...now belongs as a team partner with McLaren F1...

    now that´s a tifosi...even his job was on the line...he deserves to manage the photocopy department in maranello´s headquarters.

    ...Im glad Luca has come forward with this kind of recognisement...

    No, Mike Coughlan and the rest of the McLaren personels that were involved did that. They guaranteed it the very sec. they gave into their temptation and accepted Stepney's offer.

    Ron Dennis is going to invite him to McLaren right after, because they just love whistle blowers. Maybe they should give him a SLR to thank him for what he did.

    Maybe they will make him a Director of copy paper supplies. And let him wear a red suit and live in the new Ferrari Town house complex.

    Tifoso. "Tifosi" is plural.

    It'll be easy to recognize: it will be the rosso corsa 599 parked at the copy shop just down the street from the Maclaren headquarters, with the sides all keyed up, all the windows busted, and all four tires slashed by the locals, who presumably are more loyal to Mclaren than they are to Ferrari.

    The only thing I don't get is how that guy contacted Ferrari. I haven't figured it out, or even a possibility. I mean, he couldn't have just looked up their number in the phone book, called Ferrari, someone picked up, and he said "Hi, I have you dossier here at a photocopy shop. Surely something is wrong."

    Whoever he called at Ferrari (dealer? British importer?), if you are the one on the other end of the line and someone says "Hello, I'm working at a copyshop in Woking, ya know, where McLaren is, and some guy gave me a bunch of pages with the Ferrari logo to copy" - wouldn't you at least forward the message to whoever you might know in Maranello?

    Or just fax a page over to Maranello, I am sure that will get the alarm pulled immediately.

    Could it be Ferrari set the whole thing up in the first place or already knew and let it go on,..knowing full well Mc would take the bait.

    We will probably never know although it will be interesting to see what happens to Stepney.

    Footnote: One thing for sure though, it is now time to forget it and roll on 08
