Try a young person, that doesn't work.
Try a really young person, that sort of works.
Then chuck in Johnny Herbert and that really doesn't work.
And now he hates you.
Do you go back to Martin Brundle, who did do really well?
No, he hates Alaci.
Alaci hates him.
They've crashed into each other like 12 times in the previous four years.
Brundle's not going to Benetton to support Alaci becoming a superhero.
Who else is there?
This is the point where I got to that year because there was like so many crazy rumors about the Ferrari and Benetton number twos.
And then it gets to the point of them just going, maybe just not have a number two, maybe just get another guy who's won some races.
And the last person standing is kind of Berger.
So he's wrong, but I don't think he's any less wrong than all the other options that were all wrong or just not achievable.
Yeah, it probably was just you, but yeah.
I did wonder, thinking about this question, whether it was an ego thing on Benetton's side to go...
We can't be seen as an organisation to now be scrabbling for cheap drivers after Ferrari have outbid us.
We've got to look like we're a player that can get top drivers as well.
So we can spend.
Maybe we can't spend that much, but we can spend.
