F1: No place for Stefan GP this season

By ,

The official 2010 F1 entry list has been published by the FIA and USF1 and Stefan GP teams are not listed.

That means there will only be 24 cars on the grid at Bahrain.

The statement of the FIA indicates:

“Having considered the various options, the FIA confirms that it is not possible for a replacement team to be entered for the Championship at this late stage.In the coming days the FIA will announce details of a new selection process to identify candidates to fill any vacancies existing at the start of the 2011 season."

Hispania Racing Team, formerly Campos, remain on the list but the team have not tested their car yet.

BMW Sauber has been given car numbers 22 and 23.

This means that Canadian Jacques Villeneuve will not be making his return to F1 this season.
