Default I didnt realise Spyker were in F1?

So Midland bought Jordan.. and then Spyker bought Midland. hmm. Midland lasted less than a year

Appears Spyker started during the last season
Clearly I dont look at the back of the grid...

They just hired themselves a new driver (Adrian Sutil) alongside Albers, got the fezza V8 power plant lined up (& Ferrari technical assistance) and an awesome colour scheme.. Here's looking forward to their efforts next year!

Looking forward to Silverstone next year - my first time at that track - rain and mud stay away!

Looks very much like the Orange Arrows. They did well.

Good to have all these different teams in F1 though, and the gap to the big boys has certainlmy reduced in the last 2 years.

Liking the Spykers, especially the C12, blood expensive though Saw one at Goodwood and loved its quirkiness
