A STATEMENT FROM THE HONDA RACING F1 TEAM
Given the speculation surrounding the legal investigations
at Ferrari and McLaren, the Honda Racing F1 Team would like
to clarify that earlier this year Nigel Stepney, formerly
of Scuderia Ferrari, requested a meeting with Nick Fry, Chief
Executive Officer of the Honda Racing F1 Team. Nigel Stepney
subsequently met in June of this year with Nick Fry and brought
with him Mike Coughlan of McLaren, with a view to investigating
job opportunities within the Honda Racing F1 Team.
Honda would like to stress that at no point during this meeting
was any confidential information offered or received. Nick
Fry informed Jean Todt and Ron Dennis of the meeting and has
offered to provide any information required by Ferrari and
McLaren.
