Sorry I've decided not to continue with this game after the 1990 season, so whoever ends up taking Lotus can make the decisions from now on.

Apologies, I had more time when I signed up...

pycku · Post by **pycku** » 07 Jul 2014, 06:12

We are willing to renew our Honda deal. As for drivers - are budgets on first page updated? I'd like to know how much money I have before offering any contracts. However, it is not a secret that we are happy with the driver lineup at our disposal and would like to keep our drivers.

Does Gachot count as a French driver since he has more nationalities than normal people does?

If i'm up to date this means that Coloni and Lotus are without manager for 91 right now. Is that true?

Life bids for the Honda V12 engines. We'll retain Satoru Nakajima to sweeten the deal for them.

Our backup choice is the Yamaha, and our third choice is the Judd.

Phoenix · Post by **Phoenix** » 07 Jul 2014, 11:15

Benetton will purchase Renault engines, if possible, for 1991. We can elevate Érik Comas to a race seat in place of Nelson Piquet to help broker the deal. If not, our second choice will be the Ford HB5 and the third, the Lamborghini.

Life wants to do a deal.

We'd like the Ferrari engines, an in exchange, Ferrari gets to decide the entire driving lineup of the Life team. But we get to negotiate the contracts for said drivers. Deal?
