From F1-Live (http://f1.racing-live.com/en/index.html).
From David Richards himself.
>>"But Jacques did genuinely have a problem with his radio. He lost his earpiece and although we could hear him he couldn't hear us. Then his engineer didn't put out his pit board when he should have done. So Jacques came in on Jenson's lap and by then he was down to his very last dregs. It was all very unfortunate but there was nothing Machiavellian about it. We've talked about it within the team but it's often not best to tackle such an issue in detail on the spot when perhaps you don't have all the information and emotions are running high." <<
