    Germans make profit from their "mass production", it's the only long term sustainable way to survive - all that F1 malarkey is a massive loss for everybody other than Bernie.

    Germany seems brilliant at perfecting mass production and incremental improvement, but not so good at certain other things, like specialisation.
    That's why 8 out of 11 Formula 1 teams, including Mercedes are based in the UK.
    According to that article 80% of high performance engineers are based in the UK.

    We often do ourselves down in this country when we're not half as bad as we think
