In this report from gpupdate.net Alex and the Superfund team have lodged an entry for 2010 making 15 teams that have disclosed their entry.
Of these new teams just who will succeed with their plan to get into F1? I think USGP, Lola and this entry from Superfund will get in (because Bernie or Max like them), what does anyone else think?
Former driver Alexander Wurz is set to head the brand-new Team Superfund, possibly entering F1 next season. The Austrian, who last raced in 2007 for Williams, has been revealed as team principal to the squad which will be owned and funded by investment company Superfund and powered by Cosworth engines.
With all current teams plus a selection of debutants having already submitted entries for 2010, Autosport has revealed that Superfund - lead by Austrian Christian Baha - has also put forward an entry bid to governing body the FIA. The company becomes the fifth entrant after Campos, USF1, Lola and Prodrive to apply for next year and it is believed that planning for the project is already at an 'advanced stage'; it has also been revealed that the outfit is in contact with superior Formula One personnel, although no information was allegedly provided over driver options.
With fifteen teams now having submitted entry and only thirteen slots available in the pit lane, 26 cars will be seen on next year's starting grid as the FIA looks select what it believes are the most suitable candidates; the revealing of 2010's full line-up will take place next Friday, 12 June.
