Unraced 2000 - 2009
Arrows just simply announced their return for 2003
The 2002 season was obviously a bizarre year for Orange Arrows, or better said for Tom Walkinshaw. Prost retired after the 2001 season and Walkinshaw with his buddy Nickerson were after the assets of the team to form a “new” team named Phoenix Grand Prix. During the year it became clear that Orange Arrows was […]

Stagione 1966: Primo mondiale per la Brabham.
Il 1966 segnò l’alba di una nuova era in Formula 1: la FIA raddoppiò la cilindrata massima a 3 litri, abbandonando i motori 1.5 litri per un spettacolo più aggressivo.
