    If you didn't already know Ger, 'Aguri' means Cucumber in Greek, hence the name Super Cucumber!

    Looks like they have not adapted the car to the 2006 regs yet! Still a beautiful car!

    If Super Aguri are a Honda second team can anyone tell me why they have signed the concorde agreement?

    Also how will the honda v8 line up against the v10 the arraows was originally designed for?

    I think nobody knows, even Honda must be surprised.

    Honda doesn't wanna risk being outside of F1 if the negotiations between Mosley and the manufactures fails. Super Aguri is Hondas lifeline in F1.

    It's kinda worrying that the SA05 not yet is adapted to 2006 regulations. If the SA05 is not adapted to the new regs when they test it in Spain next week I think we will see something similar to Minardi at the first race of last season. Except for that Super Aguri won't be able to adapt their car in as short time as Minardi last season.

    Good point.

    Super Aguri signing up to the FIA was quoted in this weeks autosport. Is it correct? I don't know. But the way SA was excluded from the entry in the first place makes me wonder whether pressure was exerted on them?
  • yokosuna
    Now that there are no proper underdogs any more (midland won't count for me) super cucumber is my choice for the next season. Go Yuji 'Idle' Ide

    Super Cucumber has been sold to English Company "Magma Group", that has confirmad both the deal with Honda for the engines, and the drivers Sato and Davidson.
    Has any of you further news?
    Anyway, if things are as they appear, probably there will be no more Super Aguri in 2009.

    I can guess the deal is linked to the fact that originally Super Aguri had been created by Honda to keep a foot in F1 in case the Honda team transmigrated to the new championship the big teams were planning, now that this scenario won't happen, they do not need the second team anymore.

    Four bloody years here in, God knows what it ought to be called, and now we're going Home!

    Now how about qualifying?

    Is it a case of Toit being right, but off the ,mark because of the ridiculously hot weather fot the time of year, or what?

    And what about Webbo? "I'll take 'Fuck up my chances in the home GP' for 30 thanks Greg". "Congratulations Mark!; Youve won an obscure brake failure in qualifying!!!!! How does he do it every time?!?!
