Te koop

[Finish]

he small Minardi team, that was close to bankruptcy just before the Canadian GP, found the necessary founds (thanks to Bernie Ecclestone ?) to buy five Arrows A23 chassis in the auction of Tom Walkinshaw's team.

At first, it is a surprising move from the small Italian team but on a second thought, it could be an interesting solution for Stoddart's scuderia knowing that the Arrows A23's were also powered by the same Cosworth engine.

Officially, there are no plans to replace Minardi's PS03 by the Arrows A23 but a Minardi spokesperson admitted that they will examine the A23 and find some good ideas used on this chassis to improve the PS03, adding this comment : "Two chassis are in good condition while the three others could be used as spare parts."

But why buy five chassis if it is only to take a few ideas from them ? Paul Stoddart wants to compare the PS03 to the A23 and use the one that is the best ? It is not impossible but for now Minardi is not confirming this option.

5 A23's door Minardi gekocht. Weggesmeten geld ?

Ik heb eens al die hun zaken afgekeken ma als ge alles bezien en ge zou soms toch denken dat die met zoveel " rommel " failliet gaan. Die kleren, schoenen, sokken. Daar kunnen ze e nieuw land int oranje mee oprichten. Misschien iets voor de Noorderburen (grapje he)
