We met Willy Ponissi in a pub in Dublin today. He was with a blonde blonde Dutch girl and a black black Irish beer.

"I am here to visit some of my friends. You see, Silverstone is so near! About the girl? Better not to talk about her...

I am satisfied about my testing. My times weren't good, but the important thing is that we gained experience and possibly will improve our engine.

The other good point is that - nothing personal - I left Mal behind me... and that's good, as he's an ulsterman!"

"About the team, well... the things will change soon. I can tell you that I won't be alone in Austria. We will be 3. And the car will look different. But I can't tell more, or you won't buy next "Autosport"!!!"

The Irish driver then left us with the Dutchgirl heading for his moped, parked outside the pub.
