I enjoyed this here thread much better when the colonials hated me, now nobody even quotes me anymore?
But whatta heck, I can quote myself, can't I, or is that against the rules of board ethics Ciro?

Hurley was taken by a couple of losers with some peripheral F1 xperience of two decades back, why the only reason I can see he would spend more money on this sorry outfit is to keep the "USF1"-gimmick. After getting rid of PeeWee and Anderson, he could buy the Dallara chassis, get someone with a vague idea of what they are doing to run it, while Campos can sell their entry to Stefan if they wish. Keep Lopez and the 8 MUSD and hire an xperienced driver with some US-connection for show.
There's no reason to be in NC though, nothing there, that petit autoclave, big enough for a nosecone, is leased anyway. Even the name is doubtful, when the entry is given for "US F1 Team", not xactly Coca Cola, is it?
But Hurley is the key, the "seed-money" is wasted, q is if he's interested to give it another try with the real McCoy?
