Bernie Ecclestone has always dealt with the press in his own inimitable style but it seems that he is now falling into line with other F1 organizations and will have a press officer for Formula One Management. The lucky man is none other than Norman Howell, who was for a period the Grand Prix correspondent of The Times and The Sunday Times before becoming Head of Communications at McLaren in 1993, a job he held for three years. In recent years he has been out of F1, working as a freelance reporter.
