  • Forgotten F1 Teams – Spyker F1 Welcome to Forgotten F1 Teams – a Miniseries Brought to You by Sidepodcast
    Forgotten F1 Teams – Spyker F1 Welcome to Forgotten F1 Teams – a miniseries brought to you by Sidepodcast. We’re looking at those teams who deserve a place in the history books, whether it is for greatness, or mediocrity. Today we’re getting right up to date with our fifth team – Spyker F1. The roots of current Formula One team Force India F1 start way back in 1991 with Jordan Grand Prix. They have been through several iterations in recent times, and today we’re going to talk about just one of them. Jordan was bought by Midland F1 who were bought by Spyker. Spyker Cars are a relatively new Dutch automotive company, although the name dates back to the early 1900s. This new, modern version of Spyker was founded in 1999, and they build high performance sports cars. They did have a little motorsport experience, building and running GT cars. The key to their entrance into Formula 1 seems to be with Michiel Mol, a wealthy internet entrepreneur. He had previously sponsored Jos Verstappen, and wanted to further his involvement with the sport. His new deal saw him invest in Spyker Cars, to help them invest in F1, to the tune of over $100 million. He became their Director of F1 Racing. The deal with Midland was completed mid‐way through the 2006 season. Current drivers Christijan Albers and Tiego Monteiro were kept on, whilst the team set about trying to change their name. The regulations frown upon mid‐ season name changes, though, so Spyker stuck to being a title sponsor – Spyker MF1 Racing.

  • Ashwin Spoils Jennings Debut Ton with Three-Wicket Burst
    Sports FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2016 Pak has poor 1st day on Aust tour CAIRNS: Pakistan’s cricket tour of Australia got off to a shaky start yesterday when the visitors were all out for 208 on the first day of a three-day tour match against a Cricket Australia XI. Playing with a near full-strength lineup and with a pink ball in the day-night match in preparation for the first test on Dec. 15 in Brisbane - also a day-night encounter - Pakistan lost six wickets in the final session under lights. Cricket Australia XI bowler Cameron Valente claimed four wickets, including three of Pakistan’s top six. After winning the toss and electing to bat, the visitors fell to 50-3 midway through the opening session, and wickets went down steadily from there. Only veteran Younis Khan offered sustained resistance, facing 138 balls before he inside-edged a ball from Ryan Lees that swung back slightly under lights to be caught behind for 54. He was the only Pakistan batsman to reach 50. Earlier yesterday, Pakistan officials said uncapped 17-year-old left-arm spinner Mohammad Asghar would join the team as a backup for injured legspinner Yasir Shah. Shah is doubtful for the first test following a back injury which also ruled him out of the Cairns match. Asghar has taken 68 wickets in 17 first-class matches since making his debut in 2014. Shah had been pivotal to Pakistan’s suc- cess in test matches for the last two years, taking 116 wickets in only 20 tests.

    VII. Christijan Albers 9789045212340.indd 127 26-07-17 13:42 1. De weg omhoog Hij had alles. Talent, snelheid, ervaring, prijzen gewonnen, een goeie kop, een brutale en zelfverzekerde uitstraling. Hij had ook geld, moeizaam bijeengeschraapt via sponsors, investeerders en rijke vrienden. Zijn weg naar de Formule 1 verliep hortend en stotend. Toen hij eindelijk was gearriveerd in het koninkrijk van de vierwielers viel het wat tegen. Tweeënhalf jaar hield hij het uit. Tweeënhalf jaar in de achterhoede hangen, met teams die de olympische gedachte hoog in het vaandel hadden: meedoen is belangrijker dan winnen. Bij Midland, Spyker en Minardi, drie dezelfde teams met verschillende namen. Hij kwam niet eens in de buurt van het podium. Hoewel, in Amerika in 2006, waar hij zijn eerste en enige WK-punten behaalde, had het zomaar kunnen gebeuren. Er gingen dan ook maar zes wagens van start en hij eindigde als vijfde, net voor zijn teamgenoot. Het was een van de spannendste races uit zijn carrière op het oval van India- napolis. Christijan Albers, geboren in 1979, was misschien wel, na Jos en Max Verstappen, de derde Nederlandse coureur uit de geschiede- nis. Zijn Formule 1-carrière werd weliswaar overschaduwd door te veel (domme) crashes en te weinig succes, maar zijn palmares op weg naar de koningsklasse mocht er zijn. Hij was een gere- nommeerd dtm-coureur, won het Duitse Formule 3-kampioen- schap, reed 46 grands prix in de Formule 1 en haalde vier punten in het wereldkampioenschap. Misschien was hij beter dan zijn 129 9789045212340.indd 129 26-07-17 13:42 F1-wapenfeiten doen vermoeden.
