The Pit Bull: Interview with Gerhard Berger

After years of driving for - or being involved with - the top Formula One teams, Gerhard Berger is relishing the challenge of co-owning Scuderia Toro Rosso, helping the former Minardi outfit rise above their normal back-of-the-grid position, and above the constant paddock controversy that surrounds them

Will the Monaco Grand Prix be Scuderia Toro Rosso's best chance to score points in 2006? That's been the received wisdom since the V10 engine restrictions were first announced, because the overall lack of power will be less of a handicap, and more importantly the engine's torque characteristics should be well suited to the circuit. There are also two very hungry drivers in Scott Speed and Tonio Liuzzi, who are determined to make the most of the perceived opportunity.

The real picture will no doubt emerge over the weekend, and one man who's really looking forward to finding out how the cars perform is Gerhard Berger, co-owner of the team with Red Bull.
