    So their new partner is "a highly respected company". Funny to hear considering their legal troubles with van der Garde ;)
    They certainly went to the bottom of my list of most respected F1 teams.

  • Well, since their internal decision-making capabilities seem to be flawed with Monisha at the helm, maybe they're trying to salvage their reputation "by association." But, don't forget the old poem about "being judged by the company we keep" and the pig that got up from the gutter and walked away.
