'Splains alot...
About Honda's lack of success. They were producing "art", not race winners!
From * w w w .grandprix . com /ns/ns20263.html
----------------------------------
Honda Racing F1's chief mechanic Alastair Gibson left the team a few weeks
ago, his aim being to pursue a career in the art world, creating carbonfibre
sculptures. He will be displaying his most recent works, called Racing Brown
and Racing Piranha, with the Russell Gallery at the Chelsea Art Fair this
week in London.
"This is a real privilege for a relatively new artist such as myself,"
Gibson says. "I hope many art lovers will enjoy the medium of carbon fibre
sculpture, which is little known at the moment, but I'm sure will become
increasingly popular as this unique textile becomes more prevalent in our
environment. Both of these pieces are highly individual and use the
sleekness of the carbon fibre to bring movement and fluidity to the aquatic
forms. Most of my work has been based on marine life, but with the time to
be more creative and develop all the ideas that I have, as well as the
freedom to explore some of the new, innovative materials that are used in
Formula 1, I hope to evolve my work with new subjects and themes. It's a
major change for me, but I'm very excited about the future."
The Chelsea Art Fair starts tomorrow at the Chelsea Old Town Hall in the
Kings Road.

I suppose you can view his work at * w w w .carbonart45 . com /. I dunno,
still waiting ro it to load.

Wow... There's something lower than a Danica basher.
