No new team can ever have had a more cruel baptism to Fl than Simtek, with Roland Ratzenberger’s fatal accident at Imola in only its third race followed so soon after by Andrea Montermini’s hefty incident at Barcelona. Nick Wirth’s team set new standards for presentation and professionalism on a limited

budget when it entered the formula this year, and has weathered the blows with commendable fortitude. Hopefully it can now start to move forwards again, as lean-Marc Gounon comes in to support David Brabham on the driving front.
