A juicy one

Ron and Mansour to sell their remaining shares to Matunpronouncable, Leaving Daimler/Chrysler as minority shareholders in the then private company
Ron then supplies engines and chassis to Prodrive, having bought Richards out.

Good one

Quite possible though given the Daimler-Chrysler divorce...

This is quite a strong rumour in the F1 world

Linked to this rumour is the FACT thar D Richards has made an offer for Aston Martin, which, tho profitable is being sold off by Ford.
Now, is the offer in conjunction with his F1 aspirations, or is he selling his F1 franchise to fund the Aston Martin purchase? Remember that Prodrive already has strong connections with Aston's racing program.
The Thlot pickens

Dany Bahar from Red Bull to Ferrari as a replacement for Todt

Which leaves Ross Brawn wanderin around aimlessly til he signs with McLaren

On a street circuit?

I hope that South Africa does get a round in F1. Just not the track used in A1GP.

A Tilke designed track, next to Cape Town Airport, sounds good if they can get the deal done with Bernie.

But I think we will have a Singapore night race first.........April next year?

As a matter of interest, if they were to have night races, just where on the cars would they put the headlights.
