Super Aguri au anuntat joi prin intermediul unui comunicat de presa ca negocierile cu Magma Group au fost reluate, fara sa se ajunga insa la o intelegere concreta. Echipa sprijinita de Honda din 2006 are grave probleme financiare care pot afecta viitorul team-ului in Formula 1.
Desi Super Aguri sunt prezenti in Spania, acestia vor primi permisiunea de a participa la antrenamentele libere de vineri numai daca vor ajunge la o intelegere finala cu investitorii. Honda Racing par sa fie refractari la ideea de a continua sa ofere sprijin pentru Super Aguri, iar gigantul japonez va avea ultimul cuvant de spus in aceasta privinta.
De altfel, CEO-ul Honda, Nick Fry, a dezvaluit ca Super Aguri trebuie sa-si rezolve probleme urgent. "Pozitia noastra este ca Honda au oferit echipei Super Aguri un sprijin mai mare decat se anticipa", a declarat Fry pentru revista Autosport. "Am incercat sa-i ajutam cat de mult am putut, dar Honda nu au intentionat niciodata sa finanteze doua echipe. Am mers chiar mai departe decat anticipasem. Acum, Aguri trebuie sa gaseasca bani".
Intrebat daca Honda nu le vor permite celor de la Super Aguri sa concureze vineri dimineata prin refuzul de a le furniza motoare, Fry a replicat: "Discutiile cu investorii sunt inca in desfasurare, dar pana vineri dimineata nu doreim sa spunem nimic".

The beleaguered Super Aguri team have confirmed that they will race in this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix, even though they have not yet finalised a deal to secure their future.
Super Aguri's participation had been in doubt after a potential buyout by the Magma Group fell through shortly after the Sakhir race.
Yesterday autosport.com revealed that Honda had told Super Aguri that they would not be able to compete at Barcelona unless they completed a deal with investors before this morning.
But while discussions about the team's future are continuing and are set to run into next week, Aguri Suzuki's team now plan to contest this weekend's race.
The team have been present at the Catalunya track since earlier this week, and have been preparing normally for the race weekend while efforts to secure their future continued.
