"Hispania Racing have split from Italian chassis manufacturer Dallara after only six races on what the team say are "amicable terms".

Hispania have failed as yet to score a point in their maiden F1 campaign.

The Spanish team say that part of the reason is that since their arrival on the grid "no further chassis development was made by Dallara".

Hispania added that they intend to improve the chassis via their own development programme.

The team endured a troubled start to their debut season, with an internal takeover and subsequent name change from Campos Meta to Hispania in the build-up to the 2010 campaign.

And the Spanish marque only just made it on to the grid for the season-opener in Bahrain in March after a race against time to be ready.

A statement from the team said: "Hispania Racing, and Dallara Automobili, have agreed that what they have achieved in such a short period of time was more than could have been reasonably expected.

"The two parties wish each other the best of luck in all future endeavours."

Former Williams, BAR and Red Bull designer Geoff Willis is working with Hispania on a consultancy basis as they seek to develop a competitive package." FROM BBC F1

I believe Hispania asked Dallara


Hispania

"ok we are back in Europe when are the new development parts coming?"


Dallara

"What development parts? we built you a car for a season".


Pretty much.

Well, maybe they'll be able to improve their car then. How much money do they have?

It's the worst car Dallara ever built, it's a dog of a car.

Hispania would be better off using one of the old Dallara cars that Scuderia Italia used that I used to refer to as "Ferrari lookalikes".

i think the nail in the coffin was then car being slower than the GP2 cars.

When Dallara Build the GP2 cars.

I vaugly remeber Senna saying "well dallara build the GP2 cars so they know all the stats so were at least 2 seconds faster"
