And while McLaren Mercedes were really bad and Williams Renault were just Brilliant, in 1995 Benetton Renault & Michael Schumacher left them both wondering which way was up. I'm not Michael's biggest fan but the B195 Benetton wasn't as good as the Williams yet he destroyed them that year.
@Holden308 I think the car was as good since and they had the same engine ,I just read an old artical where Herbert said he only got two testing days all of that year and Micheal did all the testing.Benneton/Renault under Flav and Simmonds always worked the team like that.
@scarsurfing Williams and Benetton were not equal, the Benetton was aerodynamically inferior to the Williams which was at least half a second faster on paper despite having the same engine. Mechanically the Benetton was better but it is aerodynamics that have the most significant influence on performance.
LIke these older onboards a lot more than the older ones.
