The guy sounds utterly clueless!

I highly suspect we'll never see his entry make the grid. Kolles' however, I think will be on next year.

Shame we won't have a 24-26 car grid, though. Cannot see all the current teams sticking around for next year.

As a business man he's hardly clueless but when it comes to F1 and OWR in general, I would agree and that comes from the very insular nature of many Americans. I would hazzard a guess and say his reason for choosing Dallara, is because that's all he knows regarding OWR chassis manufacturers, because of IndyCar and his choice of Ferrari, as a technical partner will be the same, because that's all he knows about F1.

I would like to see his entry make the grid and I'd like to see it happen without having to buy an existing team, that's failing. Maybe I ask too much?
