That's already one great victory, every year there's the risk their chassis doesn't get approved on the crash test.

Marussia and HRT now firmly stuck in a battle to not be last, since Marussia failed the crash tests and will miss all of the tests.

Let's be honest, it's not a battle about who is better now, it's a battle about who is less shit.

Suddenly, Wirth seems quite decent doesn't it. Look where they are without them.

When your devolopment is behind HRT you know you're in deep shit.

Fun fact: HRT are yet to finish bottom of the constructors table. Despite their best efforts.

Jesus! 8O

Didn't think of that, guess that epic GP at Montreal helped them.

In the first season, Virgin were going to be ahead of them until Buemi speared into the side of a Virgin (was it Glock? Can't remember) at Korea in the rain. That was what flipped them in the standings.

No doubt. It's still one hell of an achievement though. Especially considering they weren't even ready for Melbourne last year.

Who actually runs/engineers etc those Marussia cars now that Wirth and Co have gone? I assume Marussia just have naming rights so is it just what's left of John Booth's bunch?

Nope.

The head of Marussia is now technical director.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

I'm amazed the FIA don't let them off as it doesn't sound like they'll be managing to go fast enough to do any harm to anyone anyway.
