    Chief designer on a F1 team at age 25.... That stuff just doesn't happen anymore.

      I think it has to be a two-man 1st place, with Colin Chapman@@youngkingyoungking1481

      I know. I just came back from an interview at a big tech company now and all the "normal jobs" are outsourced to other countries. The only jobs available require 2 Masters degrees. Thats a good 8-9 years of additional education. Screw that.

    The F1 was also just looking to be the ultimate driving experience regardless of the spec sheet. Same can be said for the T.50 and I think that's what people respect the most. Oh your car has 1500HP? That's cool, how does it handle and feel while driving?

    A true gifted and visionary automotive engineer and designer, certainly has pushed the design envelope on engines and chassis lightness.

    Gordon is hands down my favourite car designer. He was doing carbon fibre before it was cool and on everything! Gold not for looks but for heat management! Such a visionary.

    The music is unnecessary.

    This is a very nice piece of interview and difficult to criticise without knowing the circumstances in which it took place but the feeling is that it has left me wanting for so much more as G.M. is almost a walking library of motor racing and sports cars and this interview barely scratched its surface...

    Why does the T50 have Tesla model 3 headlights? Lol

    F1 was really about carbon fiber, this T50 is way more than the fan

    Crazy thing about f1 is that it was never ment to be raced with, möte an sporty gt car you could drive long trips with still won lemans

    The interviewer's questions are so pedestrian. Fire him.
