VW to enter F1?
Various sites are reporting that now the old BMW boss has taken over the at VW/Audi there is a much bigger change that F1 could be on the agenda in the future.
I guess it would be logical off the back of the all conquering Audi R8 Le Mans programme and even more so now that BMW and Mercedes are going head to head. I wonder if they would buy up a team now that Toyota has taken the final slot (Minardi/Prost?), or whether they would only supply engines? Logan. |

I just hope by the time VW finaly make it into F1, all the current engine suppliers are still racing.
I feel the BTCC curse creeping up on us. |

Personally I'd like to see them ironically entering the Skoda brand, and destroying the opposition.
If they failed with any of their brands, there'd b plenty of scadenfreud (check spelling) going around from BMW/Mercedes. |

I'd like to see a return to Formula One for Lamborghini. That way they can directly compete with Ferrari. They could also use a detuned F1 engine in future Diablo replacements.
