The lucky git was called Frank Mountain - property developer amongst other things. He has also just bought himself a Le Mans team I hate him. According to the Le Mans official entry - he is actually going to be driving! Looks like he is entered in the LM GT class with a Ferrari (surprise) 360. Give the guy some respect

Not just any old 2001 F1 chassis though - this was the acutal car that Schumaker won the the world title in - you would have thought they would have kept that one!

He's also had a seat specially made for him as Barrichello's was too big and Shuey's was too small.

He took it out on a test run and stalled it but the second time, the engine had a problem and shut itself down.

He didn't seem concerned even when he first saw it. The chap with him was exalting over its appearance and Frank was looking elsewhere and totally blase about it all.

Why was it so expensive? Obsolete model, no MOT or tax, costs a bomb to service, p1ss-poor parts availability, no aircon or sound system .... he was ripped off

It's a shame Schuey doesn't have these problems
