    And no sign of sponsorship!

    So, who foot the bill?

    didn't hit the 107% in Q1, but they will be allowed to race! Go Underdogs!

    50 million in prize money from last year?

    So McLaren won't be last?

    I know he owns Manor but if he uses his own company money to run the team, that won't last long.

    The smart way to go motor racing is to use somebody else's money, no?

    From what I understand they actually do not only race a 2014 spec engine, they in fact seem to race used 2014 engines.

    So the rumor has it that the engines they use have > 2000 km on them and they were either saving a PU for China (and only toast one in Malaysia) or that they perhaps only had one motor electronics for Malaysia.

    Interesting stuff.

    'New' engines they will only receive in Bahrain. The article doesn't state if that is then new 2014 units or new 2015 units. Maybe this way Ferrari has another 2015 customer but got rid of some nasty manufacturing bottlenecks early in the season...
