Fry: Aguri has a good chance being on the grid

08 December 2005

F1 boss Nick Fry has put the odds of an eleventh team making it to the '06 grid at 'better than evens'. Honda's principal, after it emerged that not every team had so far signed a document that would allow 'Super Aguri' to re-apply to the FIA, admitted that the required unanimity is 'an issue'.

The Japanese team, led by former grand prix driver Aguri Suzuki, would use current Honda V8 engines, and - reportedly - even benefit from the carmaker's financial backing. Fry told the BBC: "I think there is a better than evens chance they will be on the grid."

He also suggested that progress at Arrows' old Leafield base is progressing well. "In terms of physically being able to get on the grid, I think they've got a good chance," Nick Fry added.
