Crime fiction is kind of my thing. I’d have an international betting syndicate fixing the races, the defending World Champion who cannot come to grips with the new regulations but is desperate to defend his title, and even the foreign element – the murdered engineer was working for a team that was using CFD exclusively (like Virgin), with a lot of their funding coming from the Navy who want to explore the use of CFD in building next-generation fighter jets (because they can be produced faster and cheaper) and agreed to sponsor the team before motorsport is so competitive that the team could develop the CFD process faster than the military could and when the engineer turns up dead, the government suspects sabotage.
