Will USF1 be the "shortest-lived F1 team in history.........?

Hmmm Was it ever technically alive in the first place?

Apparently their biggest problem was trying to fit a live rear axle and 4 speed auto, the leaf springs were working well though, as was the 4 barrel carb.

Guess that V8 can go back in Jimbo's truck now! :-(

Considering the absence of a car and tests have already begun, USF1 is very unlikely to race. Campos is in danger too, they might give up earlier than USF1, since I didn't even see a computer rendering as USF1 did. I still don't get how they were even accepted, although there have been concerns about financing. Perhaps Ecclestone and others wanted a bit more crowded F1 league and ignored what's coming. USF1 and Campos should have waited a year after establishing their teams rather than declaring they would be on the grid of the first GP.

But I remember a worse situation: Asiatech F1. After supplying wonderful(!) engines to Arrows and Minardi, they had the brightest idea of founding their own team. They were supposed to enter F1 in 2004, they had scale model and made publicity with it. However they went bankrupt in 2002, the same year the team was established.

i began out gazing NASCAR hardcore in 1993 and characteristic long previous to a minimum of one race each 12 months (greater like 2-3 races). After Talladega 08 i stop NASCAR. So now unwell in common terms watch the Daytona races, perhaps a Bristol race, and the line classes. i actually began gazing F1 on the beginning up of 2008, Im addicted to F1 now. And Im satisfied a didnt get a team of Ferrari stuff because of the fact i would be a USF1 fan. i like F1 because of the fact its distinctive from NASCAR. i understand too a lot approximately NASCAR and it become uninteresting understanding how each little thing works. yet with F1 I have no concept the way it quite works and Im consistently getting to know. i like the belief of the criteria device, i've got self assurance it desires some tweeking yet i like how retirees get 0 factors. i've got self assurance if united states of america of america gave it the possibility, they'd see why F1 is best, maximum known pro league and in common terms #3 to the international Cup and Olympics of ALL activities.

Unfair, heads...there have been dozens of teams who have been just as useless at actually getting a car up and running as USF1GPE. Admittedly, few have shouted their mouths off as much along the way to ignominy.

One team which did was the Soviet "Khadi" team...they had 3 attempts at making an F1 car in the late 60s and early 70s, but they just couldn't get the weight of the car down to a level which could be competitive. Shame they bothered announcing their project to the outside world, if they had just stuck to the usual Soviet practices regarding information the whole embarrassing saga could have remained hidden.

Probably. F1 has never been popular or entertaining to North America, we don't even have a US Grand Prix at Indianapolis anymore. I watch F1, but most here prefer Nascar and the Indianapolis 500 oval.

Honestly, I gave this team a chance since they came from America, and that would make their car very nice. But when they didn't have their car shown, nethertheless tested, I lost all hope in this team. I worry the same thing for Campos, since that Bruno Senna is on the team, and without a drive he's stuck in GP2 for 2010. (ugh) Hopefully USF1 will be replaced by Stefan GP, and that will show that Ecclestone (or the bytches at the FIA) actually has a brain. OR DO THEY?

As far as I know, USF1 doesn't even have a complete car right now. Can you actually be an F1 team without a working race car?

Certainly the most useless team to create so much hype.

The team used "US" in their name to attract support in USA. They managed to attract some fans, mainly people who like to shout "USA IS THE BEST".... you know... those type.... But failed to attract any serious US investors.

I think Lola will be more successful than them actually.... They'd have a faster car that's for sure......

USF1 who? I think im going to pretend not to have heard of USF1 for a week.

F1 FTW... NASCAR FTL

what's up with all the hate?

You have some serious "issues"
