    buying the worst team on the grid is a real great "investment"

    It could be, if it's acquired for next to nothing and then turned into a leading team.

    Is that not the way edge funds gurus make their money: buying ailing companies and restructuring them into profitable business they then put up for sale?

    I understand that in F1 it could be a huge undertaking, but it's not impossible. Just look how Horner/Matesich have turned the defunct Jaguar team into the winning Red Bull.

    You can quote me now. Not happening with HRT. Red Bull had built in sponsorship with mega $$$, HRT has "your name here" on the car.

    I agree with you, partly. I do believe money could be made for Thesan Capital though. It'll be tough though. But HRT won't be a front running team. Not now, not in 5 years. Perhaps, in 2013 they score the occasional point.
