    There wouldn't be anything to debate in this case. Tata is the legitimate owner of all things Jaguar, and as such it would be a welcome return of the name to F1

    Karun caught in legal tangle

    Karun made a lot of promises on paper. But, he failed to fulfill his obligations. We waited for some time, but we didn’t have any other choice than suspending him at the German GP. We, however, did everything diplomatically. We didn’t make it public. Since then, Karun was never in the team’s radar,” the German told this newspaper.
    Sources say Karun, as a pay driver, had promised to bring in about 8 million euros to the team, but his contribution stopped after the first installment of 2 million euros.
    “His failed promises affected the team’s progress last year. We were planning to do certain upgrades on the car, but everything got disturbed,” Kolles added.
    if the team did not have the money to upgrade the car how the feck did they get the grid spot

    8 million euros on research and development how far would that go 1 seconds a lap ?

    Depends on how it is used? HRT was a complete failure and it is a disgrace we have such a team on grid.
    Of course, losers like Narain and HRT belong together.

    One word ... Tata!

    But wait ... with the hiring of Daniel Simon, all will be well! If I were he, I'd be running to the bank to get that cheque hammered right quick!
