Good stuff
 Has anyone heard anything about Brand Motorsport lately, who were going to race in the European rounds?

I don't expect Brand will do anything, but I'd lvoe to see Arden on track a few times. I just hope the engine doesn't smoke as much as the driver. It still seems pretty silly that Enge lost the title because of it though, cannabis won't be performance-enhancing, and the team is sponsored by a vodka manufacturer.

Its got to be awfully expensive to setup a team just for a few races

Maybe it's with another team's help?
Whatever the case, it'd be great to have them in for a few races. |

Do we know if Arden are running a Lola or a Reynard?

Last I heard Brand Motorsport were racing in the German, but not British rounds due to F3000 commitments. |

This could be a prelude to them running the full series in 2004 so running a few races is setting them up for that.

Great news. Hopefully they will run a full season in 2004 with two cars. And at least Enge gets another chance...

How much of this Arden story is confirmed? Has anyone actually interviewed Christian Horner? I can't find any reference to it on Autosport or Motorsport.
