iSPY - RIP Super Aguri F1 Team

[Fritz0r]

Formel 1 sportens høye drift priser og ekstreme dyre design priser viser seg og ha kostet nok ett selskap skjorta.

 

Super Aguri:

Ikke akkurat berømt for og ha biler høyt oppe, men heller Sato, som...ok, han er djerv, men han har måtte bryte oftere enn selv jeg liker og se.

 

Honda har stått for motorene og teknisk hjelp, støttet også Super Aguri økonomiskt så de fikk vist seg i Barcelona, men nå nekter Honda og dekke tapssluket noe mere.

 

SS United Group Company Limited er hoved grunnen til kolapsen av Super Aguri da de har brutt kontrakten de hadde.

 

Quoter statementet de har sluppet:

FULL STATEMENT

“In order to realize my dream to become an owner of a Formula One Team, I applied for a grid position in the FIA Formula One World Championship in November 2005. Since then, I have participated in the championship for 2 years and 4 months as the SUPER AGURI F1 TEAM, but regretfully I must inform you that the team will be ceasing its racing activities as of today.

 

The team has competed against the many car manufacturer backed teams and has succeeded in obtaining the first points after only the 22nd race finishing in 9th place overall in the 2007 Constructors’ Championship. However, the breach of contract by the promised partner SS United Group Company Limited resulted in the loss of financial backing and immediately put the team into financial difficulties. Also, the change in direction of the environment surrounding the team, in terms of the use of customer chassis, has affected our ability to find partners.

 

Meanwhile, with the help of Honda, we have somehow managed to keep the team going, but we find it difficult to establish a way to continue the activities in the future within the environment surrounding F1 and as a result, I have concluded to withdraw from the Championship.

 

I would like to express my deepest thanks to Honda, Bridgestone, the sponsors, all the people who have given us advise during various situations over the past couple of years all the Team Staff who have kept their motivations high and always done their best, Anthony Davidson who has always pushed to the limit despite the very difficult conditions, Takuma Sato who has been with us from the very start and has always fought hard and led the team and lastly our fans from all over the world who have loyally supported the SUPER AGURI F1 TEAM."
