Reported in Autosport......... With his track record, would you risk him?
I guess he has the money for repairs!!!

Not sure I'd trust him in anything but the roller skate 24 hours (yes, there really is one!) myself.

Not even sure about that, some of those roller-skates can be quite pricey these days you know

In summary:-
Great designer. Useless driver. Wallet bigger than his talent behind the wheel. Don't do it.

I think you are right, his walllet is bigger than his talent. Some, more cruel than I, might suggest his wallet is bigger than a certain part of his anatomy

Was the last crash he had at LM down to steering or brakes?

Maybe. Matbe not. The one he had at Goodwood was down to sheer idiocy.

This is a joke right? The guy needs to come to grips with reality....he makes a pathetic racing driver! That said, every year there are drivers taking part that should never have been allowed near a racing car. More money than common sense, and talent. But he'll find someone desperate enough for cash, perhaps he and Alex Yoong can find a ride to share (and crash).

Oh for goodness sake! I may be wrong (and it wouldn't be the first time) but, if memory serves correctly, the last time he was seriously involved was on the end of a phone answering why the Merc SLK GTRs were playing flying machines...........

Will that be the one after studying all the data he told them not to race

Never argue with an idiot, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
