Formula One Management chairman Bernie Ecclestone has said that McLaren essentially committed ”fraud” by lying to stewards in Australia, and that the consequences could be serious for the team.
The sport’s commercial rights holder, who has nothing to do with the World Motor Sport Council before which McLaren is due to appear on 29 April, nevertheless expressed concern that the team could be banned.
