[At the time Prof was taking home £400 a month as a consultant.] But he [Bernie] said, 'You pay for your airfares, hotels, rental cars and all incidental expenses.' "Then when I did my tax at the end of the year my accountant said, 'Why are you doing all this for Formula One?' I said, 'Well, they're paying me a lot of money' and he said, 'No they're not. You've actually made a loss on the travel!'"
