I hate to be cruel, but when I found out DC was going, I cheered.

Nothing that hasn’t already been said about him. I kind of supported him whence he moved outta Macca. He had this hunger to prove himself. Remained completely sane and a decent gent through all the negative press about why he was not a winner and blah blah. I started to appreciate the chap beneath the racing overalls.

“i never thought of williams in the same way after that.”
Mate, teams do what they think is in their best interests, they invest millions including the pay of the drivers, so i think it is fair that they chose which driver they want to run. The question you want to pose, is whether what they did is intelligent or daft?
