Nagato Grand Prix claims to have signed Ukyo Okazaki of Japan, who is currently contracted to Orchis-Honda!!

Seems like some arguments are due to happen!!

I will announce the prize money, as well as championship positions during the day on Monday.

Minarae:
2 cars being able to win, 2 cars out early. Not really a raceweekend we would have wished for. Seems like we have to improve the reliability fast. We feel sorry for our drivers, due they did a great job, but we failed to provide proper equipment.

Orchis:
The 2nd place is amazing! The team was very happy and the following party lasted until the the next morning.
We will take a close look at the contractional situation of Okazaki, buit he has a valid contract for this season. This situation is definitaly not good.
As stated earlier Honda wishes to contract Okado as 2nd testdriver, just to be sure to have a japanese hotspot in the team.
We need to analyze the problems of the car, our cars don`t hold as they should at the moment but this seems to apply for the entire field. This season isn`t won by the fastest team, the most reliable team will make it.

Nagato Grand Prix claims to have signed Ukyo Okazaki of Japan, who is currently contracted to Orchis-Honda!!

OT: Oh, shit! Sorry, guys....

Wrong news caused anarchy in the paddock

Due to a wrong news statement, Ukyo Okazaki has been declared to have sign a contract with Nagato Grand Prix. This, of course, is not true. The truth is, that another famous name has join the team ... Herbie Huckett (USA). With immediate effect, Kay Lon withdraws any statement regarding the signing of Ukyo Okazaki and has sent a gift basket as an apology to the staff at Orchis-Honda. "Somebody's gonna get soooo fired for this.", he said to a local reporter.

Drivers still available in the drivers' market:

Mark Schllinger, Tero Laiti, Elio Lahikkanen, Owen Smith, Wayne Donington, Tim Holland, Silvio Winterthur, Hendrik Simba, Laurance Papin, Riccardo Alessi, Navdeep Saini, Roman Sennikov, Fillippo Ricardo, Oliver Oelschlager, Alan Daly, Ludwig van Richter, Phillip Lunabba, Skip Garrett, Andrea Onischenko and Tomas Sainz.

All of the drivers that don't find immediate drives in the GPWC have been offered a lifeline, with a new feeder series to the GPWC.

The championship will be called "The Lola World Series" since the cars will all be built by British manufacturer Lola and run to GP2/Formula 3000 regulations.

The thirteen teams have already been selected for this category. And as an extra bonus, the winning team from each event will be entered into pre-qualifying for that weekend's GPWC event. This will not only boost grid numbers, but will give young drivers support in attracting the attention of GPWC team bosses.

Updated the Excel-file for fast calculation of development

Are you free to do all the necessary calculations for prize money race-by-race? Partly because you're good at this sort of thing, and secondly because with my daughter running round and round in circles, I can't always keep up with it!

Republica Grand Prix Press Release:

'Our team finished the last weekend with so many complains about the car, that we desided to put some improvements in the car.

Our main problem was:
Transmission, Suspension, Ground-effect, Tyre temperature and Engine fails

Between with Alfa Romeo, we already were working in a second design and so, we decided to do an 'massive attack' to our main problems, so:

Our solutions were:
Improve the Transmission technology (Hewland VGC) of 6-speeds.
Improve our suspesions technologies (Ilmor-Chrysler).
Improve our engine (Alfa Romeo V12 AR153-n).
Improve our tyre technology (Dunlop special tyres).
Improve our wings (Republica GP Technologies).

With this solutions, we will send our next cars to GPWC Management, together with our Argentinean livery in this day. We'll hope to get a very good improvement for the Argentinean race and anothers as well.

Our drivers lineups for Argentinean GP:
Team 1: Facundo Daniel Baru (31) / Massimiliano Ariesta (32)
Team 2: Dennis Wright (33) / Alexis Kamannen (34)

Also, we need imperiously the information about the 'Reliability points'. The price, what are they are, and that.

Nothing more, have a nice day.'

Team Presentation:

(Hamburg) All Drivers, the CEO and many crewmembers celebrated the presentation of the LR FC01 - the LeRon Formula Car 01.

Today LeRon MotorSports showcasted their livery and all drivers for this season. There is one new name with the already known: Sebastien Bourougsse. The French won the Formula 3 and a test in a GPWC car. Apple, who got the premium-sponsor of the team, also supports the team in technical questions and delivers the electronic system of the car.

[jakesanson]

The GPWC is delighted to hear about the rescue of the LeRon Sports team and is thrilled to hear of new entrants to the GPWC since Colombia. In Argentina, it is quite likely that we will see the season's first pre-season qualifying session.

TRANSITION-MERCEDES
A team that is purely entering for the fun factor, will launch their new car at their first race, round 3 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

"We don't intend to win. We intend to race, and that is an important difference to us." The British rock band Transition who recently moved out to Taiwan is the main sponsor and name holders of the team, although in reality the team is being fronted by Rainbow Engineering which has been running in Formula Nippon for the last ten years.

The team has bought Caleb Liu out of his contract with SME's testing programme to lead the team, with British racer Owen Smith as his team-mate. Oliver Oelschlager, a long-time Mercedes driver in both the DTM and GTs will be the team's test driver.
