Something wrong with the world
there is definetly something wrong when a rider with the talent of Gobert cant get a ride in a world championship.
The guy might give team managers a headache but he's got bundles of talent where it count's: on the track, not in the PR marquee. You boys just consider yourselves lucky, in the UK i wont get to see a single second of it on TV. P.S. is his little brother going to be as good (or as porky)? |

Bimota
The Nigerian prince (name forgotten, Malik?) who was supposed to be bringing backing to the team was all talk and no money. He was supposedly sorting out sponsorship from West (hence the silver/red/black paintjob) and Levi's (race number 501). Both turned to nothing.
Bimota have kinda' got themselves to blame as the same man did exactly the same thing to the Arrows F1 team, before walking out without ever having brought any money into the team. MCN in Britain reckoned they could be back before the end of the season but as Bimota is up a financial creek, I can't see how. |
