Points on the Team Rankings for encouraging both young and old - In which Ron Dennis appears on the television in a surprising show
Published by Christine
With just a few weeks of Christine's Rankings remaining, the team battle is on and your suggestions could make all the difference. For this week, Ron Dennis made a surprising appearance on Strictly Come Dancing, whilst Mercedes are celebrating a comeback of a different sort. Williams have published a fabulous article, and the potential for future audio experiences also picks up some points.
Movements for Week 40
- -1 Vodafone McLaren Mercedes: +2 for Ron Dennis' very brief appearance on Strictly Come Dancing. Who knew he could drive fast too? -3 for running the oldest young driver in the world.
- +3 Mercedes GP Petronas Formula One Team: +3 for their video about the return of Mika Häkkinen.
- -4 Scuderia Ferrari: -2 for Luca di Montezemolo saying there is no Formula One without Ferrari, and then -2 for some rather fabulous attempts at denial.
- +4 AT&T Williams: +4 for Patrick Head's excellent article about designers that inspire, and calling for their achievements to be more widely recognised.
- +1 Team Lotus: +1 for officially hiring Steve Nielsen, I look forward to fabulous podcasts coming from them.
