Leave it to Ferrari to field an American team...

 

hell yeah, that would be excellent marketing on their part and having a team like Penske or Ganassi running it will no doubt make it a competitive team. I have no doubt that those teams would find the right driver.

 

So Ganassi or Penske runs a third Ferrari for the 2012 season - and then go straight into bankruptcy for the start of the 2013 season and Montezemolo buys a bunch of gear on the cheap!

 

This was said in one of the USF1 threads.

Penske could field a US based F1 team.

 

being US based was one of the major follies of USF1. makes no logistical sense.

 

this $h!t had me rolling!

It doesn't at all, I completely agree.

But with the resources Penske has and the knowledge. He could pull it off. It couldn't happen in a year. Maybe over the course of three years they could do enough development and research to make a sensible entry into F1.

 

I agree completely about Penske. I wish they would come into F1. They should buy out HRT since it's for sale.

 

HRT isn't for sale, the driver's spots are though!

Hispania put up for sale - F1technical.net


But yes, those driver spots are always up for sale
