This team was managed by Flavio Briatore from 1990 until eventually 1997. In about 1991, TWR acquired a one-third stake within the team, bringing in Tom Walkinshaw and Ross Brawn to operate the engineering operations. Rocco Benetton, the youngest son associated with Luciano Benetton joined the team as Chief executive in 1998 and let go Briatore. He replaced him along with Prodrive boss David Richards, who lasted only for a year when he way too was fired, due to a disagreement with all the Benetton family about long term strategy.

BENETTON K.O. A CARDIFF
Over the 1994 season, some rival teams stated Benetton had found a means to violate the FIA-imposed bar on electronic aids, including traction control and launch control. On investigation, the FIA discovered "start sequence" (release control) software inside Benetton B194 cars, and a variety regarding illegal software in rival teams' cars at the same time. FIA had no evidence the software program was ever used, so teams found using the software received little to no punishment. No traction control software was found to stay the Benetton cars, however. Flavio Briatore, Benetton's chief in 1994, said in 2001 that will "Our only mistake was that at the time we were too young and the ones were suspicious".

Through the 1994 season Benetton eliminated a fuel filter from the refueling rig used throughout pit stops. This may have ended in a fire that occurred during Jos Verstappen's very first pitstop at Hockenheim. This resulted in further inquiries from the FIA, during which, the refuelling rig manufacturer clarified that in their opinion the modification would have resulted in 10% higher flow rates compared to the rules allowed[citation needed]. Again the team proceeded to go without substantial punishment.
