What happens when some of the biggest Teams spend billions trying to win in Formula 1 and still can't get it right?
Toyota, Honda, Jaguar, Ferrari and Aston Martin have all arrived in F1 with huge ambitions, massive resources and the expectation that success would eventually follow. But the reality has been very different.
From Toyota spending a fortune without winning a single race, to Honda walking away just before its team became World Champions, Jaguar's disastrous Ford-backed F1 adventure, Ferrari's extraordinary underachievement relative to its resources, and Aston Martin's ongoing attempt to build a championship-winning operation, these are some of the most fascinating stories of money, ambition and failure in Formula One.

(Elaborating on BMW's Sauber adventure would make more sense in this context than the Aston Martin clown show.)
Ayrton Senna had very little to do with the Honda NSX (other than showing off his heal-and-toe thing in loafers ;).
Ferrari conspiring against Eddie Irvine winning the world championship in 1999? Only die hard Michael Schumacher haters would come up with such nonsense. Yes, that legendary "pit stop turned committee meeting" at the Nürburgring was an unmitigated disaster... but a "conspiracy"? Nah, just a "Ferrari thing", a sign of things to come. 😉
