Super Aguri to build own car in 2008

NEWS STORY

As Honda slips further and further behind, we have had several e-mails from readers concerned that Super Aguri might be inheriting the dreaded RA107 next season.

Fact is, at last week's official press conference in Hungary, Super Aguri boss Aguri Suzuki revealed that the Leafield based outfit will be building its own car for 2008. And who can blame them?

Suzuki told the assembled journos that he is confident that his team has everything in place.

Meanwhile, with no news on Prodrive's plans for 2008, certainly in terms of a deal with McLaren, perhaps David Richards can be persuaded to do a deal with his former team. Or maybe not.

Finally, following on from our previous reports on departures from Brackley, we are hearing of further resignations mainly in the composites department in the wake of Paul Field's - and most likely Gary Savage's - move to Red Bull.

Talking of moves... we hear that Super Aguri hasn't renewed its lease at Brackley, which means it is moving to new (bigger?) premises. We wonder where.
