Shadow 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2006 To quote the 5 times WDC:''In my day it was 75 percent car and mechanics, 25 percent driver and luck. Today it is 95 percent car. A driver can emerge in a good new car, become world champion, and a year later disappear to the back of the queue. Driving skill hardly counts anymore.'' Juan-Manuel Fangio, in 1983. that he said in 1983........now it is 2006.......i think the statement is more significant now than some 25 years back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
