The dream of being a F1 driver; starting from pole; winning a race or even the championship. The Sauber F1 Team with drivers Nico Hülkenberg and Esteban Gutiérrez doing what they do best: racing the Sauber C32-Ferrari! It’s what we live for every day. Through highs and lows, we never give up! Dedication, precision, team work and emotions – this is what pure motorsport is all about.
In an interview with Q Magazine discussing his new album, Steve Mason also talked about Formula One:
As it’s about your life you sneaked some Formula 1 in there too, sampling some vintage Prost/Senna commentary on one of the interludes. I’ve always been surprised you’re such a fan, it’s a real rich man’s sport…
“That was my nod to the destruction of sport by capitalism. For me the death of Senna was the ushering in of the Schumacher era. I’m not saying there wasn’t money or sponsorship before that, but there was a change in the way things were carried out after that. Now drivers are essentially muzzled by sponsors. The sponsors tape their interviews to make sure they say the right thing, that’s an oppressive regime to work under and the outcome of that is you have incredibly uninspiring sporting people. It’s ruined football too. Formula 1 drivers used to be heroes, now it’s just this sanitised parade. It’s still exciting and I still love it but something is missing.”
