Formula One Features — July 1994

Just before the 1989 French Grand Prix Ken Tyrrell signed a sponsorship deal with Camel cigarettes. He needed the sponsorship money to run his underfunded Formula 1 team and if that meant he was unable to continue with his Marlboro-backed lead driver Michele Alboreto, it was a decision he had to take. Ken Tyrrell is a hard man.

Rubens Barrichello doesn't look like a racing driver. He is short and rather tubby. He has sleepy eyes, a big nose and a huge lop-sided grin. Like most 22-year-old men his favorite film star is Julia Roberts and his ideal dinner date is Cindy Crawford.
