New cheat storm hits F1

NEWS STORY

Sharp-eyed F1 fans thought they'd caught BMW in one of the most flagrant examples of cheating ever witnessed in F1.

Never mind talk of rival team's blueprints or secret fuel tanks, the German team appeared to be going even further by running with a turbocharger!

Photographs issued by the team today were wrongly labelled as the "new P86 engine", whereas the powerplant in question was the 1983 (M12/M13) turbocharged unit, as used by Nelson Piquet.

Try telling that to the stewards in Bahrain.
