bobdrummond should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I think the main reason Gordon Murray isn't in F1 is because he doesn't want to. The tight rule-book in F1 is completely against Murrays character and after his involvement in the incredible '88 McLaren, he probably thought there was nothing else for him to do.
He seems to be enjoying life at McLaren cars where his only restriction is the demands to make a car road legal and the politics of working with Mercedes Benz.

I actually see Newey going the same route, where his abilities are less tethered by regulation.
