USF1's Peter Windsor working at the Australian GP in a media role - What a JOKE!!

He didnt have the balls along with Anderson to address either his own staff and the wider media and fans in order to give a full explanation on what happened/is happening with the team and here he is working at the Oz GP interviewing the Williams drivers at a media event as if nothing ever happened

Shameful!

I'm suprised he's got the nerve to show his face after the farce that was (nearly) USF1. What a <self-censored>.

(As an aside, are ClaireVWilliams and MikeGascoyne the best part of Twitter? )

Man sees his new business fail, goes back to old job. Whatever next?

Isn't it more like: "Man makes an utter and predictable pig's ear of his new business, ruining the livelihood of dozens of employees who he is then too cowardly to talk to face-to-face, then rubs their face in it by taking a cushy little corporate engagement with a sympathetic team"?

Still, he's grown a pair now. He must be a laughing stock in that paddock, and deservedly so, so fair play for showing his face.

Notice how even ex-Autosport/paddock pass hacks have kept schtum on USF1 for quite a while.

Times like this that I can't wait what Pitpass makes of it all.

What's he supposed to do, commit hari kari?

He took a chance that few -- if any -- of us will ever take, and it didn't pan out. It's unfortunate, but that's life. I feel bad for the people who worked to try to get this project & hope they land on their feet, like he did.

Of course, the optimist in me hopes he sees this as an opportunity to start over more intelligently

So someone still dared to hire him after the USF1 fiasco?

Harakiri would be much more appropriate IMO. :

I have nothing against someone, as BBB says, merely returning to an old job after a business failure. But in this case Windsor has surely lost too much credibility for him to perform that old job. As a journalist, he needs to be able to criticise when necessary. How can he do so after what happened with USF1?
