Shooting for a documentary feature film about the life and career in Formula One of Ayrton Senna will begin next month, British makers Working Title Films have announced.

The movie, with the backing of both the late Brazilian's family and Formula One Management, will span the great triple World Champion's years in the top category of open wheel racing between 1984 to his death at Imola ten years later.

London-based Working Title Films said the feature will explore Senna's life and work, his physical and spiritual achievements on the track, his quest for perfection and the mythical status he attained since dying at the age of 34.

With the permission of the Senna family, it will be the first documentary about the former Lotus, McLaren and Williams driver, while Formula One Management will provide footage.

Working Title's hits include About a Boy, Elizabeth, Dead Man Walking, Billy Elliot and Four Weddings and a Funeral.

 
Suspended three race ban for McLaren

The FIA’s World Motor Sport Council has handed McLaren a three race ban for bringing the sport into disrepute after they were found to have misled race stewards at March’s Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne.

The ban will be suspended, however, in light of the ‘open and honest way’ in which team principal Martin Whitmarsh addressed the Council on Wednesday, and will only be applied if further evidence emerges, or there is another breach of the International Sporting Code.

Translation - Martin Whitmarsh kissed exactly the right amount of backside to get the team off :D

Ah well. I'm sure they'll get into trouble again soon, and end up getting this three race ban. They've proven themselves that incompetent at staying out of trouble over the last few seasons it's almost inevitable....:(

indeed.:o

Bets on how many races untill that happens? :rolleyes:
 
Obviously getting rid of Ron was the real objective. In the interests of consistency they should have banned Mclaren for two races like BAR.

I'm glad they didn't because it punishes Kova who did nothig wrong.

This was just lip service paid, due to having had Ron removed. Mclaren should now put Ron back in full charge of the F1 team and watch the FIA find new eveidence :D

its abit different, bar were found to have literally cheated for all of a season up to the point they were discovered by having both cars fitted with 'illegal devices'.

mclarens crime was having one driver a bit confused by the rules at the end of a race and a bit cheeky to try and get a extra point out of it.

That is one of the things wrong with F1 and the FIA today, they are very inconsistent and with every ruling it can go either way.

McLaren either cheated and should get a 3 race ban or they didn't cheat and should be found not guilty.

Mclaren didn't cheat though, they lied that was all. Serious offence. But not similar to BAR.
