Hello Force India, Goodbye Spyker

Spyker F1 is officially Force India. I can at least say that I was at the first ever race for Spyker. (Monza 07)

IMO, very lame name. Just as bad as Midland.

Maybe Eddie Jordan will come back and buy his team back in 2009.

Well, it looks like they are going to keep Sutil, but it looks like Yamamoto aka Mr. Slow is gone. They haven't announced it yet, but we should expect Karthikeyan to take the other driver position seeing that he's the only other Indian driver out there.

I thought Karthikeyan did a good job when he was in, he deserves to be back. Force Indian (FI v. F1) = the tardness

Yeh really sucks. The team was doing well in some the races too.
Now they will be the team that smells...and not talking about they're performance.

Just another rich tycoon who will get tired with his latest hobby in a few years(months?) time.
