av8rirl should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
The question that I want answering is: Can you be even field a team in F1 for £30m a year? I thought I read that teams using this budget would have unlimited testing, unlimited engines and rpm, and more...

Chassis: £ ?m
Engines: £ 8m
400 staff @ £30k per head: £ 12m
Travel: £ ?m
Drivers: £ ?m
Testing: £ ?m

And this morning I saw on another thread that the £30m may be cut to £25m... so what are the chances of anyone being able to manage on this (seemingly unrealistic) budget?
