I'm sure the data was useless, the 2007 McLaren didn't incorporate the Ferrari design philosophy. You're missing the point, they were trying to gain an advantage using Ferrari intellectual property.
As has been said before, you're talking about a couple of rogue employees throughout the whole team. Their role in the spy scandal has been admitted. In fact, it was McLaren who went to the FIA about this, Ron Dennis phoning Max Mosley personally.
Now, DeMuRe, how about a word on Ferrari sending photographers to infiltrate into the McLaren garages and place on the paddock and to spy on BMW's pit stops?
How stupid do you think I am? A couple of rogue employee's acting completely solo with no knowledge from anyone else about what they were doing?
I'm sure in your mind you like to rationalise this fantasy for the glory of your team, however in the real world that is just complete 
deMuRe, and he tries tells us he is not Bias. 
Oh he's biased all right, doing a fairly good job of defending his team but the 2007 bolded in his sig says it all.
I think it's more like
when trying to talk about McLaren's mistakes...
The 2007 in my signature is perfectly legitimate, DeMuRe. For one, I didn't see Renault or Toyota being punished for their little ventures in the espionage world. Nor did Ferrari for sending out their spies with cameras.
I don't give a flying f*** what either of you two think. 
A bit harsh 
You're funny DD, 
And you'll always been a tool.
