Fangio exhumed
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-33832488
This really seems over the top if it's just for a paternity case?!? |

not sure how i feel about this to be honest. i can appreciate that a person has a desire or even a right to know certain things and who your parents are i think falls into that category.
would have thought that in this day and age a more subtle method would be available...just obtain a sample from the grave sort of thing. actually how do they even prove its Fangio's real body in the ground unless they have another sample somewhere to compare it to and if they have another sample then why not use that to test for paternity? |

One of the claimers, Oscar "Cacho" Espinosa, raced in the late 1960s and early 1970s in Argentinian motorsport, under the name "Cacho" Fangio. He made his debut in 1967 in Turismo Carretera and drove the sister car of the championship-winning Trueno Naranja of Carlos Pairetti; "Cacho"'s was the Trueno Dorado. Also, "Cacho" was one of the drivers selected to race with the Torino 380W cars in the 1969 Marathon de la Route, where one of the three cars finished 4th in the general. Later, raced in Sport Prototipo and Turismo Nacional with Fiat 125. Now "Cacho" runs a lotto agency at Mar del Plata, and in the local media ever was suspicions about that now is that his claim.
Perhaps, they did wait 20 years after Fangio's death, because 20 years is the limit to make heritage sucession claims; after that time, heritage is made in another ways, like prescription. |

well i suspect there are a large number of lawyers making money out of this farce, perhaps the desire for "the truth" is driven more by those people than the individuals involved.
