The exciting news was that, despite the politics between our drivers, we had sealed our first constructors’ championship, sweet reward for all the hard work and dedication shown by everybody throughout the team. For me personally it was also quite something. I’d won championships with Williams and McLaren, but to take such a big gamble on a little ‘fizzy drinks’ company’-owned team, the joke of the pit lane, and help steer it to a constructors’ victory was a very, very sweet success indeed.
