Super Aguri hopeful of big improvement

super Aguri is hopeful of a big improvement in its car's performance at the Spanish Grand Prix this weekend after throwing a whole bag of improvements at it in testing last week at the Circuit de Catalunya.

"In true SAF1 Team style we bit off more than we should have done," said chief designer Peter McCool. "We have introduced a new carbon gearbox and a comprehensive aero package that includes a revised floor, a new chimney, T-wing and a whole new rear wing package."

"It was a shame that the bad weather precluded us from fully optimising this package for the forthcoming race," he added. "But I am confident that the hard work of the aero and design departments will be repaid with a good race result."
