BERNIE VOICEOVER:
I don't know what happened to me
2
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:10,400
after Jochen died.
3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,000
I wasn't too good.
4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:13,320
I can't use the word ill
5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:14,960
'cause I don't know
what was wrong with me.
6
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,600
I wasn't too active
for a little while.
7
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,560
It wasn't just losing a friend,
we were like partners in everything.
8
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,840
We had big ideas and plans
to go forward together
9
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,640
into Formula One, have our own team.
10
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,760
So, it wasn't such an easy thing
11
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,800
to suddenly turn it off
and walk away,
12
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,520
so, I thought we ought to carry on
13
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,120
and see if we can't make it...
it happen,
14
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,040
what Jochen and I wanted to do.

17
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,720
I bought Brabham for 100,000 pounds
18
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,440
which today doesn't sound like it,
19
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,040
but those days
it was a lot of money.
20
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,280
It was a bit untidy.
21
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,000
Nobody quite knew
where everything was
22
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,960
and nobody was particularly doing
one job.
23
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,960
They were...It was all a bit
of a muddle generally.
24
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,960
The drawing office was a muddle,
everything was upside down.
25
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,560
So, I thought the best thing
to do is,
26
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,960
let's get things
that we don't need thrown out
27
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,240
and tidy up everything in general.
28
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:58,760
Each car had their own bay
29
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,600
with their own little workshop
beside it.
30
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,800
And stalls were organised properly
so people knew where everything was,
31
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,920
so, it saved a lot of time.
32
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,480
And I wanted to get people
to be a little bit more tidy
33
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,000
with the way they dressed,
34
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,440
so, things looked
a little bit more businesswise.
35
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,720
It's what most of the teams
are doing today,
36
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,760
the way they sort out
their workshops.
37
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,720
Awful lot difference in size
but the principle's the same.
38
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,400
I was lucky that I decided to keep
the right people.
39
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,120
Eddie Baker and Charlie Whiting
did a super job.
40
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,880
Gordon Murray was Gordon Murray.
41
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,920
At that time
he wasn't the designer of the car.
42
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,160
I'm Michael Blash,
my nickname is 'Herbie'.
43
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:48,320
Herbie Blash was also close
to Jochen as it happened.
44
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,720
So, all those people stayed.
45
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:56,640
In the early days
46
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,560
I didn't have any sponsorship
on that car
47
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:00,240
or any advertising at all.
48
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,600
It was a nice white car.
49
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,600
The F1CA, the Formula One
Constructors Association
50
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,080
wasn't a constructors'
association at all.
51
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,320
It was a group of guys
that ran Formula One teams
52
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,080
that got together
to make some complaints
53
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,240

57
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,600
probably was the best designer
of his time.

Ken was a timber merchant.

We used to call him 'Chopper',

# Out of sight, in the night,

Teddy was an American.
68
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,200
As a child he had polio,
69
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,240
didn't stop him
doing anything he wanted to do.
70
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,400
He's a brilliant skier as well.
71
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,680
He ran McLaren.

00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,520
Although Frank had been
in Formula One for years,
73
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,200
he'd never really got himself
in the winning position.
74
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,280
He would always run out of money
75
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,480
'cause he'd always spend
a little bit more than he had,
76
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,080
and say, "Bernie could you possibly
lend me 5,000?"
77
00:04:20,280 --> 00:04:23,600
He'd normally go to a place
in the King's Road in London
78
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,040
and buy some Cashmere sweaters
or something,
79
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,240
and that was Frank.

the other one out of business.

84

I don't think we could afford
85
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,400
to have a large meeting room,
86
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,520
so, we had a double bedroom.

00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,680

88
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,320

I better do something to help

I was lucky enough at that meeting
to come close to Max Mosley.
92

to each other.

00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,680
The most important thing
for the promoter was that
110
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,000
they gave the least amount of money
to the teams.
111
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,320

"I'm getting this
what are you getting?"

It was always secret.

And everyone thought
that they were doing a good deal

the right amount of money.
118
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,000
And I said to the teams,
"Why don't we form a company
119
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,560
and we'll lay out
the terms and conditions

in fact automobile clubs

for making them pay more.

with the CSI

that there should only be 16 cars
running at the event.
170

We wasn't too happy with this idea.

(SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
350
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,280
However, Luca's the sort of guy,
351
00:20:57,360 --> 00:20:59,840
if you asked him to go
and shoot somebody,
352
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:01,880
he probably wouldn't ask
the person's name.
353
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,480
In '74, someone
suddenly come on the scene
354
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,320
which nobody knew about,
really and truly, an Austrian guy.
355
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,160
And also quite a charming guy
356
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,120
'cause he'd managed to charm his dad
357
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,280
into giving him enough money
so he could deal with Max Mosley
358
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:26,960
who owned March at the time...
359
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,400
to buy a car and race.
360
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,600
So, that's how Niki
361
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:33,960
suddenly come
on the scene.
362
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:46,000
And I think Niki could sort of talk
his way through most problems.
363
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,960
And the ones he couldn't talk
his way through,
364
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,280
he drove his way through.
365
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,040
Philip Morris,
with the Marlboro brand,
366
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:58,000
paid Niki to go to Ferrari.
367
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,160
Very good.

'Cause both Luca
and Niki were very intelligent.
371

Travelling from one country
to another is a drama.

You had to have documents
before you could move anything.
374
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:30,640
I made an arrangement
375
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,800
with a travel company
called Cazelli Mills.
376
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,640
I thought the only way to do it,
377
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,160
we move everything ourselves
all together.
378
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,320
Which would mean
the teams didn't have to worry,
379
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,280
so, they'd see the cars
leave their factory
380
00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:45,560
and see them again
when they arrived at the circuit.
381
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,880
And I gave a personal guarantee
382
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,560
that everything that went in
383
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:51,840
would come out again.
384
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,440
I explained to the promoters
385
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,120
that they had to make a contribution
386
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,520
towards our costs
for appearing in races.
387
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,080
In fact,
it wasn't a contribution in the end
388
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:03,400
I think they paid all the costs.

Carlos was a very unusual driver.
391
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,600
He was one guy
that if he went over a curb
392
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,120
and damaged a wheel,
he'd be terribly upset

in some way.

He'd be on the grid and look in

and if he was sort
of in fourth place or fifth place,
406

then he'd be, "Ahh,

in a circuit called Nivelles.

And the promoters...
418
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,800
Genuinely it wasn't the case
that they were trying things on,
419
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,360
couldn't get the money together.
420
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,080
So, I said to the teams,
"We should run this race.
421
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,840
Why don't we run it?"
422
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:28,360
And the teams said,
"Oh, no, no, no, no.
423

If you think the race should go on
424

00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,520

that I was responsible
for paying the teams,

591

00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,160
expecting that they would be paying
699
00:43:07,240 --> 00:43:12,040
a lot less for the teams to turn up.
700
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:16,320
And it was called the $100,000 club
701
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,280
which meant
if any of the promoters then broke,
702
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:20,480
what they'd agreed,
703
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,720
they'd have to pay $100,000
to the CSI.
704
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,920
Patrick's job
effectively was to destroy me
705
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,280
and what I represented.
