Roninho should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It is a shame, currently they look to be on a road to nowhere. First of all i am uncertain how many cars of F3000/italia3000/acceleration are actually still available. I guess most ended up in bossgp or have been crashed?

Secondly, i am not sure what will make drivers with some cash move to Autogp? For a junior serie it simply does not lead to anything if you drive in this serie (unless you win and you apparently get 250k). But finishing 3rd in this serie will not get you any notice anywhere.

I believe there is still the unfullfilled niche in Europe for a serie with fast formula cars that pays drivers that finished in top 10 in GP2 and WSR but didnt make the jump to F1. Maybe they can reposition and try to work to that?
With a good main sponsor (like superfund used to be) and an OEM badging the current engine that could be an option?
