Minardi waiting for the cash to arrive...
The team managers met on Friday afternoon at the Nurburgring and all came out of the meeting saying that it has been a marvellous meeting of minds.
In the course of the meeting there were a number of interesting revelations about the problems which other teams have been having in the current climate but alas no-one involved was willing to give details as the teams are very keen for their differences not to appear in print - which is probably a good course of action given the recent disagreements.
With the Minardi problem hopefully now out of the way the teams should have the opportunity to discuss more important issues such as where they are going in the future in relation the manufacturers, the Formula One group and the FIA. It is very clear that a new agreement needs to be found to ensure that the sponsors who currently fund the sport do not become worried about the long-term stability of the sport.
