Renault to attend spy saga appeal
Red Bull will not be present

Aug.3 (GMM) Flavio Briatore on Friday revealed that representatives for Renault attended the recent World Council hearing regarding the McLaren-Ferrari spy saga.

The French team's boss, who presided over championship triumphs versus McLaren in 2005 and Ferrari last year, also told reporters at the Hungaroring that Renault would again be at the upcoming appeal.

Briatore, who thinks the scandal is damaging the sport, said earlier this weekend that teams who break the rules should be punished.

"I want to know exactly what is going on," he said.

"I believe this story is damaging everybody a little bit, including me ... stuff like this is not good for the sponsors or anybody."

The Italian's counterpart at Renault-powered Red Bull Racing, however, told the same news conference that his team would not attend the hearing at the Court of Appeal.

Christian Horner said: "The matter doesn't concern our team or any employees of our team and we trust in the governing body to make the right decisions."
