I know he did - I am a fan of Jacques from before he joined F1. However, learning the track with computer games is one thing, but dialing in the best driver, engine and chassis aids with a gifted computer guru is something else. I know that each member of any team is vry important, but I'd like to see the driver be the most important and competitively influential component. Not some g
who sits in the office developing software and hardware be the deciding factor.
I really hope that the manufacturers chip in to buy out Kirsch, and then they can split the takings evenly. Teams like Minardi need a lot more money to keep development ongoing. It would be nice to see Minardi with a works BMW or Mercedes engine.
