with all the respect due, I think that happened some time ago....rubystone said:
Poor judgement (again) on Williams' part...hot on the heels of letting Raikkonen slip through their fingers and not finding a compromise to keep Parr onside. The only good decision they've made recently is to take the risk on Bottas. I am worried that FW is losing it.
There are a few articles in the current F1 Racing Magazine (also a Haymarket publication) about Williams, one of which is an interview with Adam Parr. It doesnt go into specifics but it indicates he quit because of issues with Bernie. Now who know whether Williams got a better deal from Bernie once Parr left. He also says it was too high risk to take on Kimi, they were impressed by him and his passion and determination but he was still an unknown quantity and also they didnt know the quality of the kit they would be providing him with.rubystone said:
Do you think Wolff or FW's offspring hold the power there or is FW still calling the shots? Is Wolff a disruptive influence? Parr's departure coincided with Wolff coming on board after all...
Also take in to account Patrick going into retirement. I think he was a steadying influence over Frank...Life Saab Itch said:

Nothing received yet...drop me a line again...
I'll have another go in a bit from the laptop. PH mobile is being a tad temperament at the moment.I don't suppose you still have my email address? If so, if you drop me an email, I'll copy and paste what I have typed out in the PHmail window and post it across to you.

Seems Gillan has always ducked in and out of the sport, he's got his own consultancy firm and is a professor at a university in Surrey. Maybe all is not well within the team and he's decided to do other stuff ?
Joe is more interested in Steve Neilsen leaving Lotus, he reckons he's off to Merc.
