Howett: "F1 needs clear future vision"

John Howett, Toyota Motorsport President, and a leading light in the Grand Prix Manufacturers' Association, believes that F1 can learn from NASCAR, as the sport looks to the future.

"If you research it, F1 is still one of the strongest global sports," says Howett. "People are really passionate about it and it's the ultimate combination of man and machine. I think we tend to talk it down too much rather than looking at all the positives.

"All we need is one clear vision for the next four to five years. We could perhaps look at NASCAR in the USA and see how they have developed the size of their total audience and support for the sport by, I believe, having an organisation leading and developing the whole business in a unified, professional manner.

"That is, to some extent, what's really lacking at the moment," he added, "a clear future vision for the sport over the next five or ten years."
