The Koreans don't seem to think they'll be able to manage it ...

... but it looks like Bernie has put it on the calendar so that Korea can't sue him for leaving them out ...

Long story short it won't happen, which is good because it adds an extra, expensive, fly-away race and it's not even a good one.

I thought this was an interesting little story as well http://www.theguardian.com/sport/201...ts-new-f1-team

Haas serious about buying as much as he possibly can rather than making it himself. He's right in that this is the way for a small or start-up team to get by, but I thought the point of his operation was to sell his machine tools. Not much of a marketing ploy to say that all your stuff is made by other people! Still, I think the decision to base in Oxford, either at or near Marussia's factory is encouraging as it will presumably offer some of their employees new jobs.
