Jim notes "4. The other thing Ross contributed, and the impact of this was 
undervalued, is STRATEGY"

Good points Jim.
Strategy is to management as gravity is to earth - -
ya can't see or touch it but you sure know when its missing.

Morning Jim, et al.,

I won't comment on this morning's qualifying so there's no spoiler.

I think that Ferrari is suffering from;

1. The loss of Michael's from-the-car performance analysis work
  from which...

2. ...Ross Brawn could translate the words into technology...

3. ...and all of the the drivers could benefit, on track.

4. The other thing Ross contributed, and the impact of this was
  undervalued, is STRATEGY.

regards,

rick
