Hate them with a passion!

Thats all fine and dandy but what is your reason and is it legitimate? I'm just curious and respect your view/opinion so..

[vlad]

Let's face it, they are same like their paintjob!

I have said this before, Formula 1 needs the tail end Charlies a la Minardi to bring in new blood/pay drivers to get new drivers experienced and up to speed before finding a worthy seat. I do not believe it hurt people like Alonso and to a certain degree Senna Sr.

I would genuinely be more worried about Marussia Virgin if I was you, guys. HRT at least have a plan for making progress. It may be that they've had to hastily re-think it, but it's there. Marussia Virgin, on the other hand, seem to have a plan for little other than tooting their own horn. They waltzed in with this preposterous CFD-only plan acting like they knew better than the likes of Adrian Newey. How's that working out guys?

What's that? Your car is the slowest on the grid for the second year in a row, whilst Adrian Newey's is the fastest for the third year in a row? Hmmm.

Jose Ramon Carabante seems to think HRT will be ahead of Lotus/Virgin by May..........

[Juliet P]

If the Spanish governmentis so concerned with the bad image HRT is giving them, why don't they fund it or shut up?

Let's be clear, the Spanish Government needs every euro it can get to stop its entire economy imploding. There is no way they are going to fund HRT.

Lotus, I doubt. Marussia Virgin? They probably already are.

LOL!!! @ JB. HRT are just pfttt, I'm lost for words.

I just hope we'll see them racing soon. If not, they shouldn't be in Formula 1...

formula1 is for the big boys, my only defence for virgin is that they are trying to go somewhere in the sport, HRT arent going anywhere

If HRT aren't going anywhere, they won't even bother being in F1. Its a tough business, and I assure you HRT are as motivated as any other team on the grid.

They weren't last in 2010, Virgin was. And I'd like to hear from you if the same happens again this year, "HRT don't deserve F1 blablabla".

well i would like to see them in formula1, but there not even run properly, its just such a bad image for formula1 sorry

My question is why are you so against HRT and not Virgin? You mentioned "Virgin is wanting to go places, but HRT aren't"...whats the underlying reasoning for this?? Like I said, HRT BEAT Virgin last year so whats the deal? Virgin is taking a unique and STUPID approach in designing their car, that doesn't mean they 'want to go places' more than HRT.

i just think they are total shambles, dont like that colin kolles,tosspot, poor old geoff willis must wonder what hes doing there and yes thats fair enough, but im sorry get rid of them. nobody will miss them anyway

I think they're run bloody well given the situation, it's just that money talks and they're really struggling to get sponsors. The other new teams had at least one MAJOR company backing them. HRT entered F1 at the wrong time...

I mean, on the face of it them running Yamamoto might seem like a crazy thing to do. But given how bad the car was, a good driver wouldn't make any difference so they might as well have the money coming in instead. Pretty shrewd, and that's Kolles in a nutshell i think.

Whatever. I wouldn't miss the team which finished dead last in 2010 either.
