I can't get the website to work and I've not been keeping up, is this team running this year then? Who's driving?
Not this year, no drivers announced, no engine partner announced, no fuel supplier announced, no car built, not sponsors announced.But Bernie is happy to receive all contributions to his pension plan.
God that website is slow, I hope their cars are faster. I can just imagine them sat in Starbucks with a laptop as their server......

's never going to work & what's more it's not designed to. In fact the only point of this is so that Max Mosely can say, come election time, "Look what my new ideas have brought to F1" in the well founded hope that 95% of the people empowered to vote for the post of FIA President haven't a clue WTF goes on in real F1.
Oh & I'd just like to formally announce the creation of my own F1 team, to be based in Dubai with the engineering done by a small company with a big mouth in Hungary. Despite this the team will be marketed as all British with Kate Moss as lead driver 'cos not only does she look good in her underwear but there's just a chance she might be related to Sir Stirling in some way. The team will be called F1UK & as part of my drive to, er, support Max Mosely's re-election programme, T-Shirts emblazoned with the slogon "F1UK Mosley" will be available fom all good outlets shortly.

i read from one of the 2 guys involved that (apparently) all formula 1 technology comes from america anyway, so they'll be ok.
That was Peter Windsor, I think. And he said "most", not "all".

From the Beeb, Scott Speed or Andretti Jr Jr Jr and possibly Danica Patrik, because "she generates a lot of press"... These are rumoured driver offerings btw...Andyuk911 said:
I access the web here at work via a 26MB pipe 
I waited for over 2 minutes for the site to load and nothing. For christ sake, if they can't even build a web site, how will they ever build a car...
Sorry American's, but your team have made you all a laughing stock and you have not even turned a wheel yet
