As you probably have heard, several new teams have been working towards a place on the grid in 2010, and it's with a heavy heart that many US Formula 1 fans have learned that US F1 Team will not be competing this season. The latest interview with the team suggests there's currently a wait while the FIA considers what to do with the team's request for a spot on the 2011 grid.
Among the new teams who will be on the grid in 2010, one you've heard of has been re-introduced - Lotus racing.
The famous name in racing marks the return of the green and yellow . . .
 . . . brings back his late uncle's name to Formula 1

 Our friends at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca have kindly offered a pair of three day passes to the Monterey Sports Car Championships. These races will feature two great finales over the weekend, with the ALMS season wrapping up along with the Cooper Tires Atlantic Championship Powered by Mazda. The Atlantics race will feature mentioned USF1 driver candidate, Jonathan Summerton, who will be fighting for the title with two other drivers in a 3-way title battle.
Next weekend's season finale will also be featuring Gil deFerran's last turn around a racecourse as a driver, as well as an appearance by Jim Hall, racing innovator, F1 driver, and legendary race car builder.

BMW exits Formula 1 Long faces in Munich . . . As recently reported on Autosport, BMW has announced that it will end its involvement with F1 after the 2009 season. Formula 1 as a marketing platform was becoming less and less relevant to the company's strategy moving forward - so what does this say about other major manufacturers involved in the sport? Is Toyota next? With such a well-funded effort, and so many different parts as an organization, how much of BMW's investment in Formula 1 will be made useful moving forward to their car making operations, and which specialized talent and resources will end up working with the current and new teams?
