FORD FOCUS F1 TEAM STATEMENT
We deliver a belated review of the season opening Australian Grand Prix.
Due to technical problems i.e. rjbetty sitting on his laptop and breaking most o the screen... communications have not been possible.
We were always hopeful of a stronger performance this season, as we now take things more seriously in our 2nd year (no more parties!) The change of our team identity to the strong and reliable Ford Focus (C-Max, or whatever the souped up version is called, that team boss rjbetty wants) from the troublesome Vauxhall Astra (good riddance) has appeared to prove as much a masterstroke as Williams dumping Renault for Mercedes.
We were delighted and amazed to see we had finished the Australian GP in 5th place, our previous best being two top 20 finishes in Monza and Bahrain in 2013. Even more so that we were actually the first of the non-bonus GP teams.
We had a feeling that choosing Monaco as our bonus GP may have been the wrong choice, and did feel we should have gone for Australia. If we had done so, we would have ended up winning the race by 20pts! :)
ON OUR RIVALS
Much congratulations go to Happy Bubble Racing Team and Aki's Hedgehog Racing Team who we are in a sort of partnership with, sharing Steve's desktop fan and my copy of Grand Prix 2 etc. After being down the fiel last season, they too were both at the sharp end, and even though Ricciardo was disqualified (and we just had a feeling someone would be!) they performed very strongly indeed and look in good form for the season.
We feel we will very much regret passing the opportunity to sign Ricciardo, who is the bargain of the season and believe he will easily outscore Magnussen over the year. Given that we had 1M spare, we may well rue not going for the sensible option and trying to be too radical again...
Even so, we are very proud of what Kevin has done so far and in that way, we are very pleased we signed him.
ON THE 2014 SEASON
Unlike last year, this season loos to be a very closely contested and competitive one, with many teams able to do well. Happily it looks like we are one of them. Though we know it is disappointing entrants are down on last year, 33 is still a good number, and not that much less than last year (13 less). It didn't help that 2013 was dull as dishwater. We still have enough entrants to make this a great season.
Aki's Hedgehog racing still holds out hope of getting into the top 10 in Oz once Red Bulls appeal for Riccardo's points goes through
I hate my team and will make certain I wait until AFTER testing is complete to build it!
