[ABCV]

Pues recién configurada la parrilla 2009 me atrevo a abrir el post en el que analizaremos los movimientos que podrían producirse para la próxima temporada que ya noticias están empezando a salir, sobre todo referentes a USF1.

USF1 interesado en fichar a Danica Patrick

El equipo norteamericano de Fórmula 1, USF1, que tiene previsto participar en el Campeoanto de 2010, podría estar interesado en fichar a la piloto de IndyCar Danica Patrick.

La escuadra, que el próximo 24 de febrero anunciará sus planes y cuya sede estará en Charlotte, USA, estaría pensando en hacerse con los servicios de Patrick para así aumentar la popularidad del deporte en Estados Unidos y atraer a patrocinadores.

"Es fantástica y además atrae mucho a la prensa", declaró el director técnico de USF1, Ken Anderson, a 'The Associated Press' en una entrevista telefónica. "Probablemente el presidente de Indianapolis Motor Speedway,Tony George, se enfadaría conmigo si me la llevase de IRL, pero ya veremos. No sé si es algo que ella quiera hacer, aunque nos encantaría hacerle una prueba".

En la lista de posibles pilotos también se encontraría el ex piloto de Scuderia Toro Rosso Scott Speed y el hijo del antiguo piloto de Fórmula 1 Derek Daly, Conor Daly.

Wurz, de la Rosa in frame for US F1 seat

By Jonathan Noble Monday, August 10th 2009, 09:40 GMT

Pedro de la RosaPedro de la Rosa and Alexander Wurz have emerged as the leading contenders to race alongside an American rookie at the new Team US F1 next year, AUTOSPORT has learned.

Although the American-based outfit had considered running two American drivers for its debut campaign in 2010, the team believes it will be better placed slotting in an experienced racer to help its development phase.

It is understood that the team is already in talks with both de la Rosa and Wurz, whose vast experience of testing and racing would be of huge use to US F1.

De la Rosa's contract as a McLaren test driver runs out at the end of this year, and the Spaniard is also in talks with Campos Grand Prix about a race seat there.

Wurz will also be free of his test deal with Brawn GP at the end of this year and, on the back of efforts to get his Team Superfund on the grid in 2010, he thinks a tie up with US F1 could make sense off the track as well as on it. US F1 is expected to announce imminently that YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley is to become an investor in the team.

Speaking about a US F1 deal, Wurz said: "Peter Windsor [US F1 sporting director] talked to me about the possibility of driving for them as they have limited time for testing and would need an experienced driver.

"I know their first priority is US drivers but if they really want me I would be interested in this task to build a new franchise from scratch and help them with my input."

US F1 is considering its options in terms of an American driver, with Formula Atlantic driver Jonathan Summerton one of the leading contenders to be given an F1 chance.
