The power of the sketch

I was impressed by Enrique Scalabroni from the first day I met him – at Williams, in 1985.  He’d turn up every morning in a local cab and always leave late at night – also in a local cab.

This time, I simply want to share somebody else’s blog post with you, The Spoon Test by Peter Windsor, a Formula One marketing guru and team manager (so, not an engineer). It contains two videos with Enrique Scalabroni, a designer in the Formula One world, explaining the Coanda effect with some cutlery - and, in the second video, some wonderful sketching.

Never underestimate the power of the sketch!
