An update to that video everyone keeps sharing these days. According to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! the person who posted an edited clip showing just the co-driver shouting at the driver was imprisoned after Vivek filed a complaint against him for casting him in poor light.

“The video was manipulated and projected us in a demeaning manner. It generated nasty comments including racial abuse, which completely tarnished my reputation and credibility as a co-driver in the racing circuit. My contract to participate in an Australian rally in November and a few other rallies were annulled by organisers following the video,” said Vivek Ponnusamy, who is the Asia Pacific Rally Champion co-driver for 2012. He claimed that Setna was not even an acquaintance and so his action could not be considered a prank.

Ponnusamy lodged a complaint with police commissioner S. George, and a probe was initiated by the cyber crime team of the central crime branch. Yohann Setna, who had come to Chennai for a racing event was arrested by the police on Saturday. His laptop and ipad, used to resize and post the video, were seized. He was remanded to custody and sent to prison.

Man, that guy was a champion? I think we should head down there, and open up a rally team. I think we'd all do better. Anyone up for starting an Oppo racing team?

Oppo World Racing Team? Yeah. Has a nice ring. Hopefully we can work our way up to an F1 level.

How did the guy get his hands on the 40 minute in-car video? The article says he downloaded it, but that's not exactly clear. Was it already on the web? Did he have access to the camera?
