I download a report about the "Secrets of Enzo Ferrari" by Time Watch and it explained the life of Enzo, his passion about cars and racing.
Enzo Ferrari didn't care about the drivers; the only thing he cared about was the cars and winning.
And if drivers started having a very good relationship he would get in the middle and "spicy" up the things between them because in his opinion this would make them more competitive and would encourage them to put themselves to the limit and consequently win at all cost.
But as I was watching the movie, this spicing up thing and remembering what has happen in the last years in Formula 1, I would like to know what would he have done in the current situation??
I mean there isn’t any competition between Schumacher and Barrichello (Barrichello follows orders) and everytime someone linked a driver that would compete :) with Schumacher, someone like Villeneuve or Montoya, Ferrari are always very careful not to spoil the “relationship” between the drivers.
What do you think Enzo would have done in this situation??
Would he get in between the drivers, spicy things up and get them competing against each other carrying on with what he did during his entire life or would he accept the current situation??
I’ll post my opinion later in the topic.
Note: To better discuss this you should watch the report or have a good knowledge of Enzo’s life.
There is a topic about the vid but can’t find it, so if anyone can find it it would help.
The vid is at http://www.sleepy-fish.com/other_veh.htm and then select The Enzo Ferrari Story
