Jordan: Renault chiefs succumbed to evidence

Eddie Jordan believes there must have been “clear-cut evidence” of wrongdoing at Renault for Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds to leave and the team to drop their challenge against allegations they attempted to manipulate the result of the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix.

It was alleged that managing director Briatore and executive director of engineering Symonds conspired with then driver Nelson Piquet Jnr to cause a crash at last year’s race.
