Hey guys,
Been looking all loads of photo and reports about testing (hey is not very busy at work at the moment) and i noticed that i could not find anything about Scuderia Toro Rosso testing, i have not seen a car out there at all. Surely they should be test?
i know Super Aguri (i think thats right) have not been testing ether. I guess they have there reasons, but if they dont start work on there car soon, there are going to be slower than the pace car.

They were testing in Jerez with other teams, it is just that their livery is very similar to RBR and it can be mixed up especially viewing at thumbs at some page. STR has golden brown airbox intake while RB has yellow one.

ok cool, thats gonna be really annoying when the season starts cus at 200Mph gold and silver look quite alike, maybe we can spot the differance by the number of holes in each of the cars

. am i right in thinking the STR car is a rebranded Minardi?

So what about super aguri? they gonna test that car befor race day?

they might change the livery for championship. Super aguri will test their cars in qualyfing sesion so it won't be a problem

Golden-brown vs. yellow it is... and it is "rebranded Minardi"

Aguri even got himself a website; only one page, no graphic, the title and address - looks promising

It crossed my mind that SuperAguri F1 have put this embryonic site in place to safeguard the name. This beats having to pay somebody to buy it back in the future.
