F1nvestor - Super Aguri; An inconvenient truth?
|
|
"The demise of the Super Aguri Formula One team is a sad reflection on the fact that the sport has backed itself into a financial corner that it seems either unable or unwilling to get out of," writes Mark Gallagher. "As we head into a summer where the headlines will be dominated by an FIA Senate meeting, a sex scandal played out in the high court and other such distractions, the fact that Rome is burning might be missed by some. The show will now be almost 10% smaller, but the loss is 100% for the staff at Super Aguri, and, for the sake of Formula One, it really ought to be the last." |

Massa's Turkish hat-trick
|
|
Thankfully, following this morning's GP2 debacle, nobody let the dogs out during this afternoon's Turkish Grand Prix, and other than a little bit of over-zealousness from Fisichella at the start it was a relatively incident free race. Following his third successive victory here, Felipe Massa believes he is entitled to a Turkish passport, while a strategic gamble pays off for Hamilton and McLaren.

Talking Point: Super Aguri - The End Of The Dream
|
|
In our latest Talking Point, we want your opinion on who is to blame for the loss of Super Aguri, what lessons can be learned (if any) and where the sport goes from here. Some will say that Aguri Suzuki was a dreamer, much like Gian Carlo Minardi, Paul Stoddart and others before him. But then, isn't that what makes sport, and especially our sport, so magical... the power of dreams... or is there simply no room for passion and sentiment in F1 these days. Your call. |
