He had his moments, he just went funny in the head after the BAR move turned out to be a bad idea.

did he have any other offers on the table for 99? i'm curious but i never really cared about JV to wonder where else he could have ended up

JV won the title in his second year, beating none other than Michael Schumacher, arguably at the height of his powers.
Anyone on the current F1 grid would win the WDC in that car.

I mean, if only he'd kept racing after '97 and we could look at how well he did?

What's that got to do with any current F1 driver winning the WDC in the '97 Williams?

Thats not true. JV's pass was good so he was going to finish ahead and take the title. MS knew this which is why he tried to take JV out as that was his last hope.

JV nearly lost the title to Schumacher who was driving a car that was probably the 3rd or 4th best on the grid, depending on track. I honestly think the B197 and even the MP4/12 when it stayed together were better than the F310B.

I've made a huge mistake.

The first BAR wasn't actually a bad chassis, the Renault/Supertec engine just had bad vibration that shook the car to bits and that contributed to them falling behind in development. I suspect it also shook JV's brain a bit too much and that's where we are today.

He once claimed that McLaren were an option.

I always think his performance in the '99 German GP is underrated. In the shitbox of a Williams, he hustled the car though the Hockenheim chicanes like he had no right to.

I'm not sure why they'd pay Palmer for his opinions on F1. Not only was he unrepentant in how poo poo he was, he wasn't even entertainingly bad. loving get Pastor writing the columns.
