		<description>He needs to find some money too or USF1 won&#039;t have him. If he brought any to Campos, he won&#039;t get it back in time (if at all).</description>

		<description>Indeed - they tried to sell the team to StefanGP - he wasn&#039;t interested - the sale came with debt from Dallara (chassis folk) - doesn&#039;t look good at all.

Senna JR needs to find a new seat me thinks...</description>

		<description>Campos are now saying they might have to miss all of pre-season testing, so they&#039;d be running their car for the first time at Friday practice in Bahrain. Seems things aren&#039;t getting any better for them.</description>

		<description>Hi Dave,

Thanks for the comments. I agree with what you&#039;re saying, and would just add one more thing.

I&#039;ve been wondering if the cars for either (or both) Campos and USF1 turn out to be dogs and the drivers aren&#039;t good enough, there&#039;s the potential for it to become not only highly irritating for those at the front but also a safety issue.

I suppose it depends quite how slow they are, as it could spice up the racing at the front to have to navigate slower backmarkers four or five times during the race.</description>

		<description>Wasn&#039;t that what killed Super Aguri? A sponsor promising funds yet it never appearing, despite having the company name on the car for 3 races.

I wouldn&#039;t count on the chassis being much better than &quot;it&#039;s a car&quot; since Dallara&#039;s last foray into F1 during the late 80&#039;s and early 90&#039;s. Perhaps that&#039;s a little unfair, they were solid midfield runners, though they never really had decent engines. So for all we know, the chassis&#039; could&#039;ve been brilliant but never had the power to show it.
Still if Campos do get themselves sorted, at least it&#039;ll give USF1 someone to compete against. :D
If both teams are seeking pay-drivers for both seats then both teams are in big trouble. It&#039;s normally wise to take on one experienced driver and one pay-driver with the affect that the pay driver&#039;s donation takes care of the experienced driver&#039;s wages.

Over the past 8 or so years we&#039;ve had a minimal number of drivers who don&#039;t deserve to be in F1, the standard&#039;s been kept very high. I&#039;m a little concerned that some of these pay drivers are going to be a liability to the front-runners.
We do not need to find the next Jean-Denis Délétraz!!</description>
