Wonder if we'll get 'Virygate' as an on going talking point into 26 season.

Ah but that's the trick of espionage ain't it, leave em guessing about what's gone on. 

Why would someone make all the effort to break in and go to a specific place if not to find, retrieve or copy something?

Do they have insurance scams in France?

Renault trying to recoup some costs?

It had to be someone from outside of F1. Anyone with any knowledge of the sport wouldn't want anything to do with that boat anchor.

Reports say nothing was stolen?

Maybe they meant nothing of value.

Just because their engine is a bit behind doesn't mean they don't have a trick or two that could benefit someone.
