No sign of it yet - the website http://www.nigel-stepney.com/ hasn't changed for some time and I haven't had an email to update me about it.

I think he dropped the idea in return for a large amount of cash/continued use of his legs.

Same way Barrichello's threatened book will not now be written this year as he's got a drive & is thus too busy.

Must be some pretty powerful dirt he's got on Brawn.

Truthfully it's nothing we don't already suspect & the Schui fans will never accpet it anyway so what's the point?

Because it would prove a point. Nothing more, nothing less. It would be interesting to the hardcore fans, all the behind the scenes stuff.

Any book by someone who has proved himself to be so entirely trustworthy has got to be worth a read. hehe

I can't say I'd believe a word of what Stepney said now. He's tarnished beyond redemption. There's little doubt that he's got it in for Ferrari, maybe for good reason, maybe not, but there's no way I would would believe him from the off. I'd need a lot of supporting evidence.

Mind you, it's a shame that Mosley didn't think the same with regards to McLaren. Insinuation and innuendo seems enough for him.

One would expect the book to contain the truth, as we all know how litigious the Itis and Mosley can be when they get the slightest whiff of libel.

Stepney-San is in the middle of learning Japanese, but assures me that once he has finished this exercise he still intends to publish the book. I think he'll be a little busy this season though.
