Piquet Jr 'sorry' for race-fixing
Sacked Renault driver Nelson Piquet Jr has apologised for his role in the Formula 1 race-fixing scandal.
Renault were given a two-year suspended ban for ordering Piquet Jr to crash so that team-mate Fernando Alonso could win the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix.
"I bitterly regret my actions to follow the orders i was given," he said. "I wish every day that i had not done it.
"I am so sorry to those who work in Formula 1, the fans and the governing body (the FIA)."
