I am telling the truth - Nelsinho

Nelson Piquet Jr., former Renault F1 Team driver, has responded to the announcement made by the French outfit earlier today about the criminal proceedings started against both Piquet Jr. and Sr. According to Nelsinsho, he has nothing to fear as he is telling the truth about the Singapore GP incident.

Nelson Piquet Jr.: "Regarding the current FIA investigation, I confirm that I have co-operated fully and honestly with the sport's governing body. Because I am telling the truth I have nothing to fear, whether from the ING Renault Team or Mr Briatore and whilst I am well aware of the power and influence of those being investigated, and the vast resources at their disposal, I will not be bullied again into making a decision I regret.

"I have every confidence in the FIA investigation and World Motor Sport Council and I will be making no further comment until the conclusion of the hearing of 21 September 2009."
