That was the way how he secured his seat at Minardi. Both Minardi-drivers have been racing with adverts for Wilson's plan at the nose of their cars. Tom Coronel tried the same thing in 2000 to secure a seat at Arrows. He failed. Longer ago, a couple of F1 drivers succeeded by doing the same thing. ------------------- However , a novel approach may be the fact that they say it has succeeded beyond their expectations, while at the same time prolonging the action because they failed to reach their target within the planned period. |

Palmer was a lot better than people give him credit for. He was outstanding in F2 and gave good account for himself in F3.
He was I believe responsible for bringing Camel into motorsport and indeed put the normally aspirated Tyrrell into places where it shouldn't have been in the last season of turbo cars. But he definitely under achieved. Very good in sports cars. I stand to be corrected but I think he won Le Mans in a Porsche 956 (RLR) against the factory 962s. |

He was a better driver than commentator.
