Bernie Ecclestone a fortune-teller?
Bernie Ecclestone has said Michael Schumacher can defend his world champion tittle in the Ferrari in the 1996 season. But the 65 year old Briton tipped Jacques Villeneuve as a potential candidate for the tittle. To explain his statement Ecclestone said: "He does exactly what is necessary, not too much and not too little." He also said it was better Gerhard Berger retired from Formula One. Has dear old Bernie become a fortune-teller? Or is it just he needs to retire instead of Berger?
The Arrows Team is looking for money, not because they are having real financial problems but
because they don't want Taki Inoue as one of their drivers. Inoue is willing to pay 5 million dollars
for a contract. Arrows would like to see Verstappen and Morbidelli as their drivers in 1996 so a
quest for cash is needed.
A contract for Dutch driver Jos Verstappen is still unsure. The Arrows team want to release the
news concerning the oncoming season all at once, this also includes which type of engine they are
going to use.
