Gibbo, I'm afraid I go along with Matts green Audi reasoning here, I mean, it's not likely a Bentley team member is going to turn around and admit to being cleaned out by the hun.
Looking around the pits I recognised quite a few Audi faces in Bentley overalls, and the whole pit set up and organisation was very German/Audi (I'm not talking sausages here, but you know what I mean). Are you trying to tell me that none of the lessons learnt and R&D over the last few years at Audi was made available to the boys in green?
No, all a bit soulless if you ask me, in fact I could hardly raise my flagpole at 3.00 Sunday afternoon.
I mean, British teams are meant to have people in the background fashioning vital widgets at the last minute from lumps of coal, and they borrow minor items like engine components and brylcreme from the man knocking up Grand Marnier crepes at 2:30 in the morning. And the team principal usually has his mum there making the tea. In fact, tea was completely absent from the Bentley strategy, and at that, I rest my case.
