Campos not ruling out F1 in 2008 GP2 team owner Adrian Campos has confirmed that his outfit are looking at opportunities to move up to Formula One, as talks continue with Super Aguri about investment opportunities. Autosport.com reported earlier this week that Aguri Suzuki had opened talks with Spanish businessman Alejandro Agag, a major shareholder in Campos Grand Prix, about a team buy-in. Those talks are ongoing as Super Aguri seek investors that they need to move them forwards. The Leafield-based team's budget has been hit by major sponsor SS United defaulting on payments. Campos has long been linked with a move up to F1, but has not openly talked about the possibility before. Is this an enivitible or will Spyker hold out? |

I hope Aguri don't go. Despite attracting some negetive press for using last season's Honda they have fought really hard to establish themselves in F1 and it would be a shame to see them disappear after 2 seasons As for Spyker, I thought their purchase of the team from Midland meant that the team would have some stability. Midland never looked that interested in F1 whereas Spyker are a proper racing team who have a racing tradition in sportscars. I hope they don't sell up, but that if they do they will be leaving it in better shape than Midland did last year and even Eddie Jordan did when he sold in early 2005 |
