Besnard - Goobers it again and again!

Why is it that Dave Besnard can cock things up in such a royal manner race meeting after race meeting and still keep a seat at Team WPS??

After watching the coverage from Race 1 and 2 in Shanghai today, it would almost be enough to make you scream.

When will Gorey hire a real real driver instead of the Besnard "Yes Man" to drive his car? First, he got rid of Noske, then Yoong, then McFadyen, and he has picked up Bairdo.

When will the blind stop leading the blind? This must be an embarassment for WPS...... it just has to be. Besnard came across less than favourable on TV too.

Gorey, hire a real driver instead of the "Yes man" that you crave!!

Were the WPS team in China this weekend? If Mr Besnard hadnt appeared on our screens in living colour, you would never have known

I dont think the incidents he gets involved in are all his own fault... put simply.. if you qualify badly, get in with a group of desperados, all trying to win the race at the first corner, or indeed are in a car that uses its tyres, such that handling wanders away as they get closer to the finish line... what exactly can be expected.

A pair of new chassis may be a more poignant answer than a new driver....

Meantime... would Mr Baird be looking on in envy as Mr Radisich sits 8th in the pointscore on merit after 5 rounds, while his WPS car is on the 2nd page of the points?

WHO WOULD WANT IT !!! - The team seems to be in never ending chaos , all one ever sees of the WPS cars is parts strewn across the racing circuit and what remains of the vehicle waiting patiently for its lift back to the pits - not always the WPS drivers fault , however things haven't changed since WPS joined the V8s , and they don't seem to get any better regardless of who the driver is .

But don't you have to be a marketing operation in order to be a proper racing team?

I would have thought there should be more people employed twirling the spanners than tickling the public's fancy....

I guess we can all lay bets that Besnard will not be taking the Ambrose drive next year.

Ahh, I think "Bessy" has already had a gig at the ol' SBr transporter, and from memory was no better there for the bulk of the time, even with the benifit of a couple of "new chassis" infact I think that both there and at FPR he had the new chassis thing happening regularly, well at least the front chassis rails and numourous doors, gaurds,boot lids, and a plethera of bonnets, grills,head lights, front spiltters and radiators

Aah, Gorey is a smart business man.
Bairdo to try and get a car up the front for TV coverage - and Bezzy to keep "offing" to get the other end of the camera spectrum!

WPS need things like SBR engines and a "Ron Harrop" type to sort their cars.

The best 'customer' car around at the moment seems to be the Paul Morris cars. With Alan Draper engines yet to come they could be even better.
