As Dallara is free now you can pick it! good_Ralf will get Ferrari after 1990!
In addition to our Caffi bid, I've thought about second drivers. If any of these drivers can bring £1m in sponsorship, then I'd like to sign them for a season:
Mauricio Gugelmin Erik Comas Alessandro Zanardi
I'd also like to take on a young French driver to fulfil test duties. Although the list of new drivers has yet to be released, if Christophe Bouchut, Olivier Panis or Jean-Marc Gounon make an appearance on it then I'd offer them the seat if they can bring a bit of money.

Starting Money for the new Teams(Modena and Jordan) is the money from sponsorship!
What you have just done is killed Ferrari. You have just killed the sport!
How does that make you feel?

Sorry, I missed the earlier info about Moreno injury. We won't go testing between Monza and Estoril. Comas will make his GP debut replacing Moreno for the Portuguese GP.
Patrick Head. Adrian Newey. The ruthless efficacy of our indomitable technical department. The profusion and depth of the enviable resources available to us.
And we can't develop a viable active suspension system, never mind that it was a technology we pioneered.

Andrea Montermini will try ro sign with tyrell as it wos the only offer he got. He will need 2m$ for the test driver role! 1-20...can't offer some money 21-55...0.5m$ 56-75...1m$ 76-90...1.5m$ 91-100...2m$ 10...he can't provide any Cash!

They have also got an exclusive option for Honda engines(can be purchased for 15m$) and if they do so, Honda will pay 10% of Sennas salarie(would be 0,4m$)! BUT he will only sign if Mika Häkkinen doesn't do it, because Häkkinen is higher in preverence! If Häkkinen signs Senna will still be free to negotiat!

True, but Williams was the team most closely associated with the technology, and Williams did exploit it to an extent that was unparalleled by any other outfit.
Except within this continuum. We're tripping over ourselves perennially for some inexplicable reason, and it's draining millions out of our coffers.

It is only williams that really successfully developped the active suspension. The lotus system was crap. In this game it is normal that we have random results, if it is only like IRL, we can stop and watch williams win from 1991 to 1993.
I guess it is not possible to increase our offer to Modena ? if not we will sign Larini, or we offer Stefano Modena 250k for 1991
For Modena actions we are not sure for all our actions so we will try these options:
For the 2nd Driver 0-60 sign Alliot 61-100 sign Collard 1 Phillipe Alliot is our 2nd driver
Test Driver 0-25 sign the pasta man 26-50 sign Apicella 51-100 sign Suzuki 98, Aguri Suzuki is our third driver
It's good to keep Caffi, but it's vital we find someone to partner him with a nice blend of talent and money to help us make that next step up. We hoped Comas or Gugelmin would fit the bill, but alas our search goes on.

In other, slightly less murderous, news, plans for a new Number 1 driver:
Mika Hakkinen: $5m Nigel Mansell: $7m Stefano Modena: $5m
We'll also return to Schumacher with a new offer of $4m and several large cartons of apple juice
All contracts to be 2 years
We called the police, hope they rescue Jackie. However, he is just minor shareholder, so no problem for us. But watch out, as you will finish in jail and will lose control of your team
I think AGS are going to play a fun game of "Who can bring the most money?".
We'll ask the following drivers to bring some cash with them, and the driver who stumps up the most will win the second seat alongside Caffi.
Eric Bernard (because France) Mauricio Gugelmin (if he's still available) JJ Lehto (might be a match for Caffi...) Aguri Suzuki (in order to try and attract Japanese engine suppliers) Marco Apicella (worth a try?) Christian Fittipaldi (I'd expect him to be pretty handy) Ukyo Katayama (think of the potential!) Thomas Danielsson (because having looked at his junior results, he doesn't seem too bad...)
We'll also play this wonderful game with our test seat. The candidates here include:
Jean-Marc Gounon Olivier Panis Christophe Bouchut Emmanuel Collard Michael Bartels Andrea Montermini

So, if I understand this, I have pickings between Brabham and Winkelhock?
Then I'd say we put Joachim Winkelhock as number two driver and Gary Brabham as test driver. Now that that useless parasite Nigel Mansell won't balast our accounts anymore, could one and a half million dollars convince Rene Arnoux to come back from retirement?
If I replace Samster as Minardi boss, may I please consider having Pierluigi Martini and Ukyo Katayama as race drivers with Jean Denis Deletraz paying to be the test driver.
Thank you
