More quotes by Martin Sorrell

There is much romanticism about Formula One of the past. Today it has to be more of a family sport, not less. It is a fixture in the Sunday afternoon TV programmes, and probably flamboyance - those white silk suits and devil-may-care attitudes - would be outworn attributes today.
Martin Sorrell
[Formula One racing looking after Jackie Stewart in 1968] was not so intense and, yes, it was much more dangerous - what was definitely different back then was the level of safety.

I believe that Virtual Reality will hit it big time. I know that some of my colleagues disagree, but I believe in it.
Martin Sorrell
The challenges some European economies have are such that it makes it very difficult for them. You have to go where the growth is.
Martin Sorrell
If you are a driver of a team and have a certain set of sponsors, who is the target market for those sponsors? But, of course, it is also a question of nationality.
Martin Sorrell
I recently interviewed Bernie Ecclestone in London. He had a go at women, said [Vladimir] Putin should be running Europe and so on. He enjoys it - he's been doing it for such a long time. He has an entrenched position. The truth be known, he is unique, right?
Martin Sorrell
F1 is exciting, its values are attractive and it could be an even better family sport.
Martin Sorrell
Technology will have moved on to an unimaginable level in ten years.
