F1 : 2008 - The end of road for Super Aguri



Tuesday, 07 May 2008
I was 'shocked', yeah.. I mean not really shock... when I read the news of Super Aguri retreated from F1 grid this season. I already knew the end. Nick Fry already spoke out loudly that he wanted to get rid of Super Aguri, he didn't said it directly but by saying "... Pessimistic about the future of Aguri" and rumors said he is the man who ordered to ban the Super Aguri truck to enter Turkey Grand Prix.

He (Nick Fry) even 'worried' that a size of Weigl company could make a better life for Aguri, w! hen Weigl group wanted to bid Super Aguri. Weigl is too small he said. I started to dislike this person because he is talking too much regarding the future of Aguri in the name of Honda, which is actually it is in the name of his a$$... Poor this guy... He is disappointed because Magma pulled over in the last minute, if not, Nick would pocket a lot of money from the boy-out... At least that's what a close resource said to me yesterday.

Suzuki-san has been trying his best to save the team, and failed, Magma Group retreated of buying Suzuki because in 2009 the customer's card will be banned in 2009, means they have to spend more money to build R&D, including wind tunnel, which Super Aguri didn't have one. To build such a complete system, Magma group has to spend nearly 1 trillion excluding to pay 200 millions to Honda regarding Super Aguri's debt during 2005-2008.

I am very disappointed of losing this great team, I really like the team spirit, I alw! ays remember in 2007, when Takuma Sato overtook Alonso,... it ! was so s weet.... Rest in Peace Aguri....!!!!
