Flav of the Month:
Exclusive Interview with Briatore
by Biranit Goren
Flavio Briatore is anything but a typical Formula One team boss. He wasn't a racing driver in the past, nor was he a mechanic. The businessman who appeared out of nowhere some 15 years ago to manage the Benetton F1 team is by now one of the most successful managers in the sport, with an envious cadre of talented drivers and a surprisingly successful team in his realm. Biranit Goren dropped by his office at the Renault F1 factory in Enstone for a chat about Mark Webber (why he won't go to Williams), Mike Gascoyne (why he went to Toyota), cheating allegations (why he doesn't care), and his retirement plans (he'll leave before Michael Schumacher).
