09-25-2004 (GMM - Shanghai) Formula One 'failed' Ford and Cosworth, Minardi's Paul Stoddart - without a subsidised engine deal for next season - said in China. The struggling team's owner suggested some are being harsh if they believe the car manufacturer has done the sport a disservice by opting to pull out and sell Jaguar and Cosworth. ''(The news) shook the sport to its core,'' said the Australian, ''and, as a result, there (is) much speculation concerning the future of F1's independent teams.'' But Stoddart denied that Minardi has been left without an engine for 2005, as it signed a contract with Cosworth prior to the manufacturer's withdrawal, but the team also has a supply of old V10 powerplants. He insisted: ''There is no doubt whatsoever that the team will be lining up in Melbourne (2005). It is not Ford and Cosworth that have failed F1, but F1 that has failed Ford and Cosworth.'' |
