Toto Wolff secretly recorded

So, according to German newspapers, Toto Wolff has been recorded by an "ex-F1 team boss" during a test at Barcelona. Apparently he has made some quite disparaging remarks about Mercedes and Williams management.

A quick Google, names the 'unknown' team boss. I have to say, when I saw the apparent identity, I wasn't surprised.

Here's a link to Joe Saward's blog, where I first read the news: http://joesaward.wordpress.com/2013/...rs-of-bugging/

There we go...

As I said, the name didn't surprise me. Though part of me was expecting to read "Ron Dennis" .

German libel law seems to suggest that you can't name the individual. Hence why, to anyone visiting this thread, the identity hasn't been formally revealed.

EDIT: Though, at the same time, the whole internet can't be prosecuted if his name slips out en mass. Which it will on Twitter.

It thrives on that sort of thing. With the tyre thing seemingly over and still another whole week to go before the next GP, it was just bound to happen.
