This kind of ties in with this episiode, but also the 'What if Schumacher had not been in F1' special you did. Had Tom Walkinshaw been able to buy Ligier, how would that have affected that and other teams related? They would have had a good 1997 car, with a good and proven Mugen-Honda engine. Assuming TWR managed to persuade Hill to join like he did with Arrows, how would Hill's title defence have been with the Ligier JS45 as opposed to the Arrows A18? Would Panis have been retained or would Diniz have been kept for his Parmalat money which did go to Arrows to help pay for Hills salary anyway? The knock on effect of this is what happens to Arrows and Jordan? Do Arrows fade into bankruptcy sooner than they did? Do Jordan fail to become a race winning team in 1997/1998/1999 without start drivers and an ailing Peugeot engine program?

This may have been the last occasion where the winning driver was unable to speak much English, which was understandable as he was French in a French team!
