Craig Pollock on BBC Radio 5 Live was asked about rumors regarding Damon Hill joining BAR in 1999. Pollack made it clear that David Coulthard is his next choice for the team who recently signed Jacques Villeneuve.
Pollock's manipulation of the media toward his next driver was clear when stating, "David Coulthard has everything we need in a driver... He is a terrific driver, can put a car on pole position and knows how to win races. He would be ideal to have on board next year."
