F1: Rumors Persist That USF1 Won't Make 2010 Formula One Grid ?

Ross Brawn has expressed surprise at the news that USF1, one of three start-up new teams for the 2010 season, has not yet commenced internal crash-testing of car components.


The publications Blick and Auto Motor und Sport revealed the news this week, to which Brawn replied: "We have been crash testing for the new car for the past two months, to be ready for the official tests.

"A new team should be doing the same if it wants to be ready for the beginning of the season," the Briton added.

Germany's Auto Motor und Sport estimated the chance that the Charlotte based team will be ready to race in 2010 at "zero".

It has been rumoured that one possible outcome for USF1 is the sale of its 2010 entry to another team.

The reports said that at a recent FOTA meeting, all team bosses with the exception of USF1 sporting director Peter Windsor wanted to forbid teams from selling their official entries.





PaddockTalk Perspective

Obviously Ross Brawn's opinion is one that should be respected, but its not clear to us that any of the new teams will participate in a full testing program... so theoritically they all have until March to prepare for the 2010 Formula One season. We wouldn't be surprised that the first time the cars are run are at the 2010 Formula One season opener.
