Minardi permitted to run on Saturday
Mr Justice Hapersberger of the Supreme Court of the State of Victoria this afternoon granted an interim injunction to allow the Minardi F1 Team to take part in the 2005 Australian Grand Prix practice and qualifying sessions on Saturday, March 5, with the cars in 2004 chassis and engine specification.
A further hearing is scheduled for 1415 hrs on March 5, at which time the FIA, if it wishes, can appear and respond to the application.
Due to ongoing issues concerning the participation of the Minardi F1 Team in the 2005 Foster’s Australian Grand Prix, the cars of Patrick Friesacher and Christijan Albers did not participate in Friday’s two practice sessions at the Albert Park circuit. Further updates will follow.
