...unusual step for a company that doesn't have much contact with normal consumers. Dassault is an industry leader in powerful modeling software, used by aerospace and automotive engineers to design parts and products. Its clients include Boeing, Airbus, Daimler and Ferrari. "Its core markets are fairly static. What it's trying to do is broaden its reach and find new markets," says Adam Shepherd, an analyst with investment bank Dresdner Kleinwort. In recent years Dassault has successfully branched out to many other industries, including fashion and consumer electronics. Cutting-edge architect Frank Gehry uses Dassault software to model...

...chance to identify, with greater certainty, the best of the best is the promise F1 is holding out this year. Almost certainly, Ferrari and McLaren still have the fastest cars. But with technical aids on the scrap heap, drivers from BMW, Renault and maybe even Williams could just get a look-in. And F1 may gain a new legion of fans - those who, while they'll never be transfixed by fast-moving, logo-covered machines, could be won over by the brave and brilliant souls who control them...
