bobdrummond should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I'm not in any way anti-Newey, It's just that I wonder is there anyone else who can compare with him.

Remember Neweys '88 March. Now that was a special car. And he was only 28 years old! I really like Neweys perfectionism, like the fact he insists the barge-boards are installed in such a way that changing them requires removal of the suspension, whereas Ferrari et al use a method that's far quicker but results in extra parts and draggy detachable panels.

As for Minardi, Brunner has always been good. His cars have been notably tiny. The '88 Rial and the '89 Zakspeed making their counterparts seem like trucks.
