It is also expected that the team will soon be unveiled as Virgin Grand Prix, rather than Manor.

The cars are being built for the team by Wirth Research in Bicester and are unusual in that they will have no wind tunnel testing as technical director Nick Wirth believes that computational fluid dynamics is now good enough to make the wind tunnel obsolete.
