Financial problems for Hispania
 
For Hispania this is the first season in Formula One which has been a tough one for them right from the start. The team that stepped into the race without any pre-testing had undergone several months of uncertainty over its future and survival, until the Spanish businessman, Jose Ramon Carabante pulled the team out of crisis by funding it.
However, the scarce resources have left the team far behind its close rivals as it was hardly able to carry any development in its car during the season.
The team driver, Bruno Senna while talking to the Brazilian media told that the financial restrictions had been the major hurdle in carrying out any development in the car. Further he clarified that the team still has some conditions to run by until the end of this year though they hope to see a better forthcoming season.
He further explained that despite being in the same sport things run differently for all the teams, he told that things are not much like Red Bull in HRT, where big things could be tested on any ordinary weekend. Formula 1 is a place where everything goes faster than anywhere else, one needs to constantly develop and change so as to remain competitive.
After having spent a year at Formula One, their survival is not possible in the most demanding sport of the world.
He openly admitted that he would have loved to proclaim that his team will be there next year but he thinks, for Hispania and some of the other teams anyone could easily say "it is not that easy".
However, he added that the entire crew is working hard and also are planning some good things for the next season but only if they could make it.
He continued telling that still he does not consider the year to be a waste for him as he had learned big lessons that will help him all his life. The year was started by the drivers without having tested the cars. All through the season the team had been working and making the car.
The Brazilian, while talking about the plans of the team for the rest of the races of the year, told that they are in talks with Toyota for getting hold of the used parts from its F1 car. However, he thinks that too is a complicated process.
At present Senna stands at twenty third place in the charts with having no points so far.
