Yesterdays win was more 'redemption' than karma
2008 I was helping Ferrari
, now 2021 and for the last 3yrs I've been helping Honda F1
As controversial as yesterdays race finish was I've been doing F1 long enough to accept that world championships aren't won or lost on just one incident, even when good/bad luck or right/wrong decisions are involved that affect either driver or team
Mercedes over the full season had the faster car and were the stronger team, they won, good for them, congratulations on well deserved 8th Constructors World Championship
Verstappen over the full season was the faster, more hungry driver, he won, good for him, congratulations on a hard earned 1st Drivers World Championship
Gents, 'Stick a fork in me, I'm done', my F1 World Championship Bingo score card is full as I've now helped design cars that have finished in the....
F1 Constructors World Championship from 1st place to 11th place and every position in between
F1 Drivers World Championship from 1st place to 23rd place and every position in between
It's only taken me, 21 years of my life working in 5 jobs at 4 teams/1 engine manufacturer helping 10 race teams design/build 33 race cars and 3 test cars, driven by 29 race drivers in 392 races from 1116 race car starts using several billion $'s of money and 1000's of peoples help
My little story could be considered an example of 'never give up' but I look more on it as 'don't under estimate a stubborn fool doing a fool's errand'
