There have been suggestions that Renault used team orders in Turkey, after some radio traffic was broadcast on live TV during the race...
Flavio Briatore: If others think they need to try and pressure us by saying that then it is a good sign, but it doesn't bother us. I am surprised nobody has asked why viewers heard those comments on live TV? The answer is that our team doesn't believe in unnecessary secrecy, and we have nothing to hide.

Even so, it wasn't difficult for Fernando to overtake Giancarlo…
FB: Giancarlo is a team player. He had problems with his tyres in the first laps, and Fernando was faster – something we told Fisico over the radio. So when Fernando got alongside him, he didn't fight his team-mate. It is not about team orders, it is about working as a team.

Are you worried about not winning races as the season draws to a close?
FB: No. We have already shown we can do that this year, with both drivers. Our sport is not about dominating at one moment or another, but about scoring points progressively through the season. As far as I know, the driver who wins the championship is still the man with the most points at the end, and nothing else.

FB: Things are much closer with only a nine point gap, but I am still confident. McLaren are the ones who need to take risks and attack all the time. Let's see how the next races unfold…
