Eddie Irvine wins damages case
Formula One racing star Eddie Irvine was today awarded £25,000 (€36,260) damages against a radio station he accused of exploiting his celebrity image without his permission.
The award, by the Court of Appeal in London, also relieved Irvine of liability to pay an estimated £300,000 (€435,000) costs bill which he had faced following a High Court hearing a year ago.
