Boy, do I miss the Benetton team at this time of year. I’m talking about the days when Formula 1 teams laid on proper car launches instead of a precisely orchestrated ‘reveal’ and gushing messages about this million-dollar piece of mobile cybernation winning races assuming the tyres on each corner don’t give up.
I mean, when is a team principal ever likely to stand up and say, in his honest opinion, this is the biggest pile of crap they’ve ever produced? In most cases, the media struggles to find a decent story. Not so when Benetton was around. There was always something to say – and not necessarily about the car.
We want to hear from you!
