Well, Albert Biermann was also partially responsible for the the F8x. The way it was tuned on launch was not great. That resulted in the worst critical reception of an M3 ever. It took ZCP to make the car drive like it should have.

I would also point out they were so proud of the direct rear subframe mount, which was of questionable value. It is already gone in the G8x and yet performance and ride quality have increased.

These are big companies and complicated projects, there won't be one single person responsible for success or failure.
