Re: McLaren excluded from F1 in 2007 2008 ???
If the FIA wants to hold Mclaren responsible for its employee(s) receiving confidential information from another team, then they should also hold Ferrari responsible for its employee's information leak. Its as simple as that.
Leaking confidential information between employees of rival companies is very common in todays world. You can't just go around penalizing companies based on some of their employees breaking ethical codes/practices unless you can prove that the top management is the one who approved or initiated the theft. And to prove that its next to impossible.
And to those voices who are demanding that Alonso and De La Rosa should be banned from the sport for making use of information that was given to them by the Ferrari employee I say wake up and smell the coffee. I'm sure if the tables were turned Massa and Kimi would've used McLaren's info with a thank you smile.

I downloaded a pdf file from the FIA's site. I don't have a direct link to it anymore (I can't remember where I found it), but I uploaded it myself:
