Super Aguri out of F1

[Lightning McQueen]

Unfortunately, yesterday Super Aguri F1 Team
withdraw from Formula 1 World Championship .

Another bad day for the "Circus" . . . .

Last year the Jap squad finished in 9th position, 2 points behind Honda, their "parent company".
It is a shame, a big shame because the past season finale showed that the passion and
the commitment of few people can bring much satisfaction in this world dominated by
"big" manufacturers . . . .

I think that every F1 fan, hope to see back on the grid this "little big team".

Its shame that Sa are out of F1. I’ve been lucky enough to speak to the teams various designers and follow their technical progress quite closely. Their development of the ageing Arrows in 2006 was amazing, ot to mention their ability to get a another old car up to the same pace as the works team. My abiding memories of the team will be their first race\finish in Melbourne 2006 and Sato overtaking Alonso’s McLaren last year.
An enthusiastic and open bunch who will be missed from F1. Lets hope they all find work in other areas of top level motorsport.

I do agree with you...a shame at all...
They were working really fine even being a "small team" and really well organized. Let's hope to see them back soon or late!

I was thinking of the technical staff actually...but I'm sure that the whole organization was very good as well!
