Ferrari-McLaren espionage battle goes to court
Ferrari engineer Nigel Stepney was sacked after the controversy emerged.

New Delhi: A bitter row between Formula One's top two teams, Ferrari and McLaren, over alleged espionage has now gone to London's High Court.

Ferrari engineer Nigel Stepney was sacked after being accused of supplying McLaren's chief designer Mike Coughlan with Ferrari's secret technical information in April.

It is believed that the row centres on two computer discs containing 780 pages of material.

At Tuesday's preliminary hearing in a case relating to the intellectual property dimension of the spat, Coughlan and his wife Trudy were ordered to pay costs following an early-morning search of their home by officials last week.

What's your reaction?
