Minardi sells F3000 arm

[skyzerr33]

Yep to help keep the F1 team going

Minardi is selling there F3000 team. The money from that and hopefully getting some of the TV money like they should for coming 10th in a race, will hopefully keep em on the track for the rest of the year.

So Webber can sell himself to the other teams

Sounds like we could be loosing another race team in the not to distant future then. It would be very sad for Webber to lose the drive....I did read yesterday on one of the European F1 sites that he might get a drive with Toyota,,,,,don't know how that would work,,,but

Neil.

isn't he on loan to Minardi but contracted to Renault?

what about the kid Toyota has there in there F3000 team Bristoe wouldn't he get a run before Webber seeing hes the test driver for Toyota?

Webber would be a WAY better driver if he was given a chance in a better car i think. Whats up with Minardi having such shit cars?

[skyzerr33]

its a money thing ryan.

they can't afford to develop the car as much due to lack of funds.

also one of there past engineering ideas was to reduce power to increase reliability. Which has worked as the Mindari's seem to only not finish a race when they crash. They just gotta find some speed.

[d0p3y]

Ah so that's why. Everytime i hear about Minardi someone's calling them crap, and saying they are the slowest team in F1.. but like you said their cars are very reliable pity they can't keep up with ne1..

There always going to be a last place in F1...Mindari are the holders at the moment.

Briscoe.....uuummmmm. awsome driver, seen him in karts once or twice. I think if the Webber/Toyota thing came off it would be at the expensive of McNish. Briscoe would just wait till Salo moves on. His still young, and to be fair, isn't performing like he did last year. He just crashed the Toyota F1 yesterday too.

Don't forget Courtney. His still one of two drivers and i think yougest drivers win back to back Karting World Championships.
