It'll be good to see what Prodrive do over the next couple of years to prepare.

Their factory in Banbury is huge and they're looking to expand it again.

^ I hear DR is miffed because his expansion can't take place due to city by-laws. The old NIMBY rule playing a factor. He's battling with the mayor and local communities as the community do not want the added expansion as they claim it will generate more traffic congestion, while DR's argument is that it will bring in more jobs.. the debate will rage on

No surprise that Stoddart isn't allowed back in....lots of drama there.

He's worth quite a bit more than any of those other guys though....except Bernie, he's worth a cool 2.2billion euros...

Formula 1 team bosses past and present were crying into their cornflakes on Sunday morning when, much to their horror, they discovered that their arch-rival, ex-Minardi boss Paul Stoddart, is richer than all of them.

Stoddy is a new entry in The Sunday Times Rich List 2006, going straight in at number 606, trousering a whopping
