So F1's second worst kept secret has finally came to light, Spyker have also been mentioned, perhaps they will be a new Spyker F1 team, could be very interesting.

Your thoughts?
 
Very interesting, possibilty of a Spyker F1 team is quite different to the usual talk of other car manufacturers..
 
Eh you almost always know it's going to happen when a team says they've had no contact with them.

Still I'm looking forward to having Spyker involved in F1. Should be good.
 
Nono, Hyundai for sure:D

Hyundai had a rally team! Wasn't that terrible either.

Uh... what will be next? A SEAT F1 team?? :scared:
I bloody hope so! Maybe the value of my SEAT will go up, especially after SEAT F1 dominates all!!!
 
Who are all current Dutch drivers in F1 at the moment? I would think a Dutch company would want Dutch drivers for their team, though that may not be the case.
 
Robert Doornbos, Christijan Albers and....

errr....Jos Verstappen?

I think Albers for sure would stay on, Monteiro has been/is in talks, perhaps doornbos would take 3rd seat?

Assuming the team is like Aguri and wants to be as Dutch as possible.

Wait, wait...

If there was a SEAT team in F1, it'd be surely managed from VAG (Volkswagen-Audi Group)... SEAT hasn't that much budget, they can barely keep with their Seat Leon cup and the WTCC, and stop counting :x

PS: My dad has a '05 Seat Altea, the car is REALLY neat tho... especially because it's essentialy the same car than VW Golf Plus and costs like 3,000€ less...
 
I don't like it, but that probably stems from the fact that I seriously dislike the color orange a lot.
 
Well atleast now you will be able to tell them apart from the Mclarens at a glance because their liveries where almost indential colours! grey with red wing bits!

Although the new livery makes it look like a road cone that had been spray painted with grafitti.....!
 
I think the car would look better with more gray and less orange. Orange is such a terrible color. :yuck:
 
New livery looks crap-tacular. The orange is messy, why dont they establish somesort of pattern, The red livery they had this year was good enough.
 
Just for you, I made a new avatar.

Thank you Blake! 👍 I feel just wonderful knowing someone out there has made an avatar just for me.

I think the car would look much better if they had more of the gray/silver color, much like on their C8/12. They have balanced the amount of orange with the gray/silver color much better.

I think the livery is fine, it's just the body is abit busy lookin' with all the winglets and it breaks the colour up.

Didn't it win only one point during it's first season?

I bloody hope so! Maybe the value of my SEAT will go up, especially after SEAT F1 dominates all!!!

The value of used Seat Ibizas and Leons (especially the turbo ones) is already sky-high. Even higher than the Golf of equal power-levels...
