Germany's authoritative Auto Motor und Sport magazine said "Villeneuve Racing" is one of the three candidates for the 13th and final place in the pitlane.

The report said it is rumored that Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds may be involved, as might be a crew made up of former Arrows and Super Aguri staff.


What could possibly go wrong? :gomer:

Using the Villeneuve name, in part, to bring sponsors?


The proposed Villeneuve Racing F1 project is actually a partnership with former GP2 team Durango.

The Italian outfit announced its intention to enter some months ago, amid scepticism reflecting the fact that having failed to find enough money to stay afloat in GP2, it seemed an unlikely candidate for an F1 entry.

However the addition to the mix of Villeneuve and his manager Rick Gorne – one of the founders of BAR – has clearly made it a more interesting proposition.

Would this team serve as some kind of penalty box for F1?

Disgrace yourself or the sport bad enough and your only option will be Team Sleaze Ball. Bernie will take anyone's money.
