Mephistopheles
The thing was Damon made some decisions that were financially based
for 1997 he had Jordan or Arrows and he went with Arrows..he improved the team I 'll give credit from back of the grid to podium contenders
but he was upping his game just as everyone said he would have won the championship that Villeneuve made a real hash of
Even if he joined Jordan he could have won a few races that FIsi and Ralf could not
for 1998 he had Mclaren or Jordan on offer and rejected Mclaren on the basis the offer was insulting and went for Jordan ... it took him mid season to get going when he could have been a race winner and contender with Mclaren
- Jordan offered £10m paid through B & H

As with Webber
he use to be an arrogant
when he came into F1 he was very hard on Antonia Pizzonia especially who was badly treated by Jaguar in favour of a British driver
Williams could not understand how Pizzonia did not excel at Jaguar - a lot of it has to do with Webber's attitude towards him in the same vein jacques Villeneuve treated everyone with disrespect
He got on better with Wilson who replaced Pizzonia. He had no respect for Klein who got the drive because of RED BULL money
Then he made noises joining Williams was his moment to play with the big boys and frankly he disappointed in 2005
After a terrible 2006 he got a lifeline at Red Bull thanks to Flavio's business dealings

As for his performance last season...after a good first half he was very poor second half . People were slating Button for a poor mid season but i have to say Webber's tail off after Silverstone was just as awful even more so in the best car on the grid then
he failed to finish in the top 3 again....
I know Helmut likes to turn up the pressure and remind him that he wants someone younger to replace him... I believe Webber will only take one more season of beating by Vettel before he hangs up unless he can spring a suprise
