Well..... indeed a good question. Why was Stewart GP so good and why Jaguar was so bad even from the first year. Actually they didn't change that much of the chassis (I believe they didn't even claim that they'll build a completely new car, like BAR did when they bought Tyrell). The engine was the same Cosworth... the team and facilities... etc etc. Actually my idea (and I underline it is MY idea, I don't want to imply anything) makes some strange correlations with Max' "midfield team that played not-so-kosher" in 1999; no penalties were awarded (if indeed that was the case, maybe FIA and FOA/or FOH or whatever Bernie's companiy were willing to close an eye if Ford would become more involved)... also I find a bit strange Jackie's resignation...
Sorry if I offended anyone, but since imagining conspiracies seems to be our favorite game allow me an attempt too.
