As I said repeteadly years ago when many people here were claiming that Ferrari sabotaged Barrichello's car, such claim doesn't make any sense.

Why would a team want their car to perform beyond it's possibilities? With all the money and sponsorship and prestige at stage, to suggest that a team will hamper one of it's driver is preposterous. Think about it, McLaren is paying more than a million dollar per race to Alonso, and then they would want him to underperform? It doesn't make any sense at all.

But then, conspiracy theories have always being popular around here

You mean like this:
From BBC
According to BBC commentator David Croft, reports of an 'investigation' are inaccurate.

"We're now being told it's not really an investigation. But that the three drivers have been called in to see the stewards," Croft told BBC Radio Five Live.
"It's where the story of the investigation are being spun from. We've never been categorically told by the stewards that they are investigating what happened.

"Lewis should be completely in the clear. But why was that story put around that there would be an investigation? Is that trying to destabilise a man that has come here to win a world title?"

or like this:

BBC 5Live's David Croft F1 correspondent has questioned why the ruling was so long in coming.
He said: "The three-man panel studied the new evidence and decided it added little to their original film.
"So why the delay? Surely this could all have been decided yesterday, when Toro Rosso made their appeal. "To leave it 24 hours before interviewing the drivers, keeping Hamilton in particular in limbo on such a critical weekend, appears unnecessary at the very least.
