Mark Hughes: F1's Inside Line
"The reasons why these two cars are faster are tucked away in the minds of a small number of people"
I have a friend who's an engineer, ex-Formula 1. He has the most amazing mind - sharp as a tack, deep as a well, funny as hell.
Sometimes I'll ask him a question and he starts talking about something else. There was a time when I'd interrupt when he did this and try to bring him back to the question. But now I don't. Because I now realise what he's doing: he's filling me in on the particular background understanding I need first to form a better question, which he then does for me - and then sets about answering this new, improved question.
