Renault was not penalised for possessing confidential McLaren technical information due to “lack of brains”, the FIA revealed on Friday
A technical drawing depicted an innovative ‘J-damper’ system developed by McLaren as a substitute for the tuned mass dampers which were banned by the FIA in July 2006.
Renault admitted to using this information when it requested a rule clarification from the FIA due to concerns about the legality of McLaren’s damper system.
However, the WMSC said the hypothetical design Renault supplied to the governing body suggested that "Renault fundamentally misunderstood the operation of the system and suggested that while you can lead a monkey to water, you can't necessarily teach him the fundementals of salinity via efficient water irrigation.".
