A truly sad dad for the sport - they were a popular team and I was quite the fan of Takuma Sato and Ant Davidson.

its just costing silly amounts for these dudes to keep racing...


i reckon introduce a 'salary cap' system, where teams can only spend x amount per year per car. Might bring things back into line somewhat.

thats a shame. they weren't in it for long.

Not fussed.

A new team will join next season to take there place

[TJ]

Will they?

Prodrive wont be joining due to the customer car issue, Torro Rosso is for sale as it is, so a new contender would most likely buy them and save the setup time and money.

Who will take the spot?

[adrenalin]

Not sure but i guarantee there will be.

It will come from the arabs im guessing seeing as they have all the money to fund a F1 team.

Will see a new team will come from some where. Hopefully start releasing info soon on potential teams wanting to go in.

Sato = Paul Morris of F1.

Shame to see, oh well. they were pretty useless on the scoreboard anyway.

The magma group which was backed with Arab money walked away from Super Aguri two weeks ago.

None of them are interested in starting a team, the simply wont to buy it, like the group that now has 5% of Ferrari.
