BMW is leaving Formula1
BMW will leave formula 1 after this season president Norbert Reithofer said in a press conference earlyer this morning. (yup, it's morning in Belgium)
According to Autobild (German newspaper) are the poor results and high costs the reason. According to Reithofer these are not the main reasons. Internal changes in strategy are the main reasons BMW leaves F1. BMW will however stay active in other motor sports.
Reithofer said the money they will save from competing in F1 will now be used for developping "green" cars, cars who are better for the environment.
This season the cars where driven by Robert Kubica and Nick Heidfeld. The both of them only scored 8 points so far.
Buh buy BMW.....
