Title: spyker F1

from their web site

Today the Spyker Formula One team launched its 2007 car and drivers at Silverstone circuit, UK. Team principal Colin Kolles presented the team’s latest challenger, the Spyker F8-VII, drivers Christijan Albers and Adrian Sutil and an exciting new test driver line-up at the Northamptonshire circuit.

Managing director and team principal Colin Kolles predicted a ‘transition year’ for the team, with a focus in the early part of the year on improved reliability and performance, before a big step forward with a revised B-spec car towards the second part of the year. “We know that the first half of the season could be challenging for the team, but with the stability that Spyker has brought with it, we’ve got a real direction and focus now,” Kolles explained. “We know that Spyker want to make the project work, and we’ve already set about making changes to turn the team around. One of the first steps was to bring in Mike Gascoyne to lead the technical team and help give the direction we need.”
