Contrite Coughlan finally apologises for part in ‘spygate’ saga

MIKE COUGHLAN has publicly apologised for the first time over the role he played in the infamous ‘spygate’ saga.

After four years away from Formula One, Coughlan has began his new role as chief engineer at Williams.

The appointment has been a controversial one as there are many within the sport, particularly at Ferrari, who have never forgiven Coughlan over what transpired in 2007.
