Oh no, Jacques is back!

Despite the fact that the last time he was involved in setting up an F1 team, results were shall we say, scarce, Jacques Villeneuve is reported to be forming his own F1 squad ‘Villeneuve Racing’ and has lodged an entry for the… 2011 season.

Although he won’t confirm whether he will drive or not, it is safe to assume he will, as it is clear he is desperate for a drive as he (allegedly) even spoke to the scary guys at Stefan GP. Said a source close to the popular Canadian; “For sure, it will be great, he will be paid loads of money, there will be none of these arguments about who get’s the new wing or whatever and as he’ll be in charge it won’t matter if he is any good or not, plus it will be very difficult to sack him”.

A bit like those five years at BAR then….

Now you see him, now you don’t….

The picture to your left shows the happy band that was the Stefan GP team with, seated next to Mr Stefanovic, former McLaren cheat, Mike Coughlan. The picture below however shows that Mike has either been airbrushed out or he… has developed the power of invisibility, which would be dead useful in F1.

Sources close to the team rubbished our comments, pointing out that Mr Coughlan had just popped out to the copy shop and would be back soon.

Stefan GP have Stara’s in their eyes

If you believe what Stefan GP say on their website (and let’s face it, if you do believe them then you probably also believe in the abominable snowman, the lost city of Atlantis and unicorns) the Serbian squad are not… only preparing a team for F1 in 2011 but building a track too.

The Serbian Vultures, as Ferrari lovingly refer to them, still plan to be on the grid next year, with what will then no doubt be a brace of two year old Toyota’s and will also be opening the ‘Stefan Technology Park’ near the town of Stara Pazova, deep in the heart of the friendly Balkan countryside.

Team boss, Stefan Dennis, says rather confidently; “Bearing in mind that we will soon be on a par with top teams, in terms of facilities and organisation, as Stefan Technology Park (STP) looking to be compared with them, we expect many positive improvements in the future.”

If anybody, anywhere, not currently spending time in a mental institution, can tell us what that last sentence means there is a first prize of a weeks holiday to Stara Pazova, second prize gets two weeks.

Stefan’s fantasy F1 website opens for business

There are a few spoof F1 websites around, the one you are looking at now included, but nothing beats the surreal madness that is the Stefan GP website.

Stefan GP are planning to ship containers around the globe (again) next year… no doubt getting very cross (again) with everybody in the process while demanding that despite the fact they don’t seem to have any money, partners, sponsors or team members, they should be in F1.

One major (and particularly bonkers) section of the site is called ‘Drivers of 2010’, a list of twelve drivers who didn’t actually drive for the team but (allegedly) spoke to them.

Dirty Dozen? Desperate Dozen more like.

Stefan GP prove they are ready for F1 - with a piece of paper.

In scenes reminiscent of when Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain returned from Germany in 1938, waving a piece of paper proclaiming all was well, the Stefan GP team have now had their own Chamberlain moment.

In a statement on their website, Stefan… confirm that they have indeed sent some boxes to Bahrain and one of them might even have a car in it. They back this up by showing a receipt from DHL. If ever there was final proof that (A) They should be on the grid or (B) They are just plain mental, then this must be it.

The statement continues, (in the friendly manner we have become used to from Stefan); “If case we don’t receive the chance to compete in Bahrain, and also when some of the teams fail to show up, somebody should be in a trouble explaining what is happen to all of us (sic)”

They add: And dreamers from USA will have to explain their actions, because they are deliberately weakening F1 with dreaming of perfect world and fairytales about success. And success doesn’t come by talking but with hard work and a lot of guts.

You have been warned, oh yes, you have been warned.

Toyotal Recall

Stefan GP’s plans to nick Campos’ place on the Bahrain grid have been dealt a blow as Toyota have recalled their cars due to a technical glitch.

Toyota engineers have discovered that despite building dozens of F1 machines that contested 140 races… over 8 years at a total cost of a gazillion dollars, that the cars never actually won anything.

The vehicles have been sent back to the factory and in the meantime Stefan have been lent a couple of Yaris courtesy cars.

Hands up time – the Toyotal Recall headline was pinched from @sniffpetrol

The Return of Ralf

There was unbridled joy in the Valencia paddock yesterday and amongst F1 journalists and autograph hunting fans worldwide, when the news broke that Ralf Schumacher is on the verge of returning to the grid.

Stefan GP, who seem to have done… everything else sensibly so far, seem to have had some sort of odd moment in thinking that Kazuki Nakajima and Ralf Schumacher would make a good driver pairing.

At these stage this is all just rumour but Ralf is apparently keen on a return to F1 from the DTM graveyard, having seen how well brother Michael’s comeback is going.

Just goes to show you can’t keep a good man down – or a bad one for that matter.

Albanian’s set to rock F1

Annoyed that their neighbours Serbia look set to have an F1 team any time soon, Europe’s poorest country, Albania, have decided they too want a piece of the action. While Serbian outfit, Stefan GP, have a budget and it would… appear, bits of last year’s Toyota, the Albanians have had to start with nothing.

Undaunted, the three Gjini brothers from the town of Tresh, have decided that building a car hewn from a six ton block of marble is the way to go. Alfred, 24, told us today, live via a pair of tin cans and a piece of string; “The car is heavy, yes, but it has rock solid reliability and will not sustain any crash damage, Big Issue?”

We gave him a pound before we realised he was talking about the car and not selling a magazine.
