What was it like interviewing the relatives and colleagues of some of these inventors? I talked to the daughter of John Weilgart, who made a "space language" of symbols that he supposedly got from aliens. That was painful in the sense that he devoted his life to this project and he was only ever mocked for it.

The snafu "brings to light that there's no real professional process in place to agree on the future" of Formula One, says the former adviser. Stewart agrees. "There's got to be a restructuring of the governing body to project more stability," he says, "to take it through the long term." For now, fans will just be hoping that that future includes Ferrari...
