Alonso knew the plan, says Piquet Sr.


Triple World Champion Nelson Piquet claims that Renault's Fernando Alonso was fully aware of the scheme to cause a deliberate crash involving his son in last year's Singapore Grand Prix. Nelsinho Piquet's retirement in the race led to the deployment of the Safety Car, which assisted the Spaniard to victory.

With the Piquets having accused Renault team chiefs Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds of originating the idea of a crash before the race, Alonso has already explained that he knew nothing of such an idea. However, Nelson Piquet Sr. - World Champion of 1981, 1983, 1987 and manager of his son - is certain that the Spaniard was aware of the proposal.

"Fernando knew everything," Piquet is quoted as saying by Spain's Diario Sport. "Alonso could not ignore it. If you are fifteenth on the grid at a street circuit, there is no point in just hoping for the best; at most, you can pass three cars - it's a senseless strategy."

Further reports suggest that Piquet will do all in his power to 'destroy' Renault Managing Director Flavio Briatore, who some predict could leave the team even before its FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) hearing on Monday 21 September. 'Crashgate' is the second serious case with which Alonso has been linked in two years, having been at the centre of the Ferrari-McLaren 'spygate' scenario in 2007.

ah piquet, keep em coming.

now i know this is lies, because Alonso said "it was the safety car to flav right in front of the media and stewards at the podium room"

KNOWING that it was all planned for Piquet to crash would it really be such a good idea to go

Alonso:"I WON BECAUSE OF THE SAFTY CAR"
Flav "Shhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Exactly, you'd keep your mouth shut.

Piquet's statement is pure speculation, he simply states that Alonso had to know because the strategy was "senseless" otherwise. Will someone just gag him please.

plausible deniability? Maybe Fern didnt know but doesnt mean it didnt happen still.

Nando's not an actor he came across as genuine when interviewed about the allergations. And just after the race in the podium he said to Flav "it was the safty car - the safety car"

He might of said it in the press conference fine if asked but if he had just planed to win on the safety car he wouldn't be screaming it out if he didn't have to.

You just have to look at the charecters invovled.

Nando we know can be abit of a blackmailer.
Flav is abit dodgy and has been caught with dodgy bits on his car.
Piquet Snr is a liar, cheat, who's willing to blast his rivals in the media, and use dam right dirty tactics and political manoeuvring to win support and make it harder on his rivals.

Who do you think's telling fibs...?

[bud]

thats why i said plausible deniability. meaning Alonso didnt know about the plan. so his reactions are genuine!

Yeh cool so i'm saying piquet is telling a lie so which means its another lie

[Hexagram]

Fernando might have found out about it afterwards and then kept his mouth shut but everyone at Renault was. In all fairness Piquet Snr's statement is foul, Fernando was actually complimenting Nelson as a driver on the weekend.

It's just getting beyond ridiculous. As if the accusations of race fixing weren't enough we've now got Piquet reportedly doing everything in his power to "destroy" Flavio, which seems to include accusing Alonso, and Flavio trying to 'out' Piquet Jnr.
