When Lauda pulled in the pits at the Japanese GP in 1976 in a blinding rain storm and said he would not continue in such unsafe conditions....and this race determined if Lauda or Hunt was the F1 World Champion....Ferrari told Lauda that they would simply state there was a mechanical condition with the engine that prevented Lauda from continuing....Lauda told the Ferrari Team Manager that he would not accept this explanation and told the truth to the press.

Just sayin'....it's not always the press releases that determine the true end result.
