Autosport reports that German automotive company, Weigl Group, is engaged in talks to support Super Aguri for the balance of 2008 and take some ownership or involvement in the team. The deal must be sold to Honda and Aguri Suzuki is flying to Japan to sell the 8-ball committee on the idea.
It must be said that I hope this deal goes through and that Honda, unwilling to support SA further, will help the team engage the Weigl Group in a meaningful manner to keep them on the grid. We need Super Aguri! I also hope that Mr. Ecclestone can be influential in helping this deal materialize.
