It is kind of when someone on life support dies - you know it is going to happen, but when it actually does it really hurts.

Man you are really grieving...... I found this , it might help you:

Losing someone or something you love is very painful. After a significant loss, you may experience all kinds of difficult and surprising emotions, such as shock, anger, and guilt. Sometimes it may feel like the sadness will never let up. While these feelings can be frightening and overwhelming, they are normal reactions to loss. Accepting them as part of the grieving process and allowing yourself to feel what you feel is necessary for healing.

There is no right or wrong way to grieve — but there are healthy ways to cope with the pain. You can get through it! Grief that is expressed and experienced has a potential for healing that eventually can strengthen and enrich life.


Come on buddy, what happened here is lack of leadership, bad money management plus as you said they probably underestimated the amount of money needed to run this operation. I bet you we will see in upcoming years something to replace them.

I saw a quote like this on another forum sight about USF1. I totally agree with it though.

yeah it really is sad, specially with the employees and the fans. But in the end I just want to see it if the guys really were not prepared to take on the task plus not even get the engine started this is the best thing that could happen, instead of breaking down constantly on the track or having to pull out after 2 or 3 races because of bad funding and/or money management.

I don't get it? It's like buying a lotto ticket and then get mad when you don't win the gazillion million thousand dollar prize. We all knew US and A wouldn't deliver in F1, USF1 just proved us right.
