About this actor
Senior Ferrari F1 race engineer Stepney passed a 780-page technical dossier to McLaren chief designer Mike Coughlan in 2007; an Italian court convicted Stepney of industrial espionage, sabotage and sporting fraud (one year, eight months). The FIA fined McLaren a record $100M and disqualified the team from the constructors' championship.
