An event that has stunned me, the ultra-successful chassis constructor Reynard has gone into receivership in the past week. Reynard, who are partners in BAR Honda F1, have had tremedous seasons in many other formula including CART. I visited their factory a few years ago, and it's sad to think that they are going away. But it's a clear wake-up call to other racing businesses that profitiablility is paramount.
