Didn't see this posted here, so all you F1 fans will prolly find this interesting. According to an Italian site, Honda has found an undocumented "feature" from the ECU McLaren, which they supply to all teams in 2008. The source says that by pressing certain 3 buttons in the right order, the ECU goes into a new mode which is similar to the launch control. The launch control is not allowed this season, for those who don't follow the rules in F1.

Any thoughts? If this is true, what will FIA do about it and what will happen to McLaren? They are already in some big trouble with FIA about the "Ferrari Incident"..
