Former Formula One Team Principal Eddie Jordan has commented on the 'cool fuel' issue and its potential negative results while speaking with F1-Live.com, hinting that the FIA's rejection of the McLaren team's appeal is a better fortune.

Referring to the lack of sanctions given to the BMW Sauber and Williams teams following the Brazilian Grand Prix for possible usage of fuel cooled below regulatory standards, the Irishman explained that McLaren's reaction most probably stems directly from Ron Dennis' character.

"It's very difficult. I can understand that Ron was very hurt," said Jordan. "I understood possibly why he did it because Ron is very strong about correctness and he wanted to see the correctness."

But lodging an appeal meant heading into a situation where right of principle and victory before the courts were not necessarily a good outcome.

"He was is a no-win situation," stated Eddie Jordan, speaking of the McLaren boss. "Even if he did win the appeal, I think a lot of people would have disputed it. Therefore, from that point of view, from the media, everything else..."

"No, it wouldn't have been something I'd have done," concluded Jordan.
