Marussia will also be absent in Austin

The end of the season F1 proves to be very complicated for the teams at the back of the grid. The serious management problems faced by Caterham F1 Team put the team in the hot seat, Bernie Ecclestone even authorized the team to miss the next two events in Austin (Texas, next week) and Brazil (November 9), while they find a buyer.

It is now the turn of Marussia F1 Team that all eyes are on since the Russian team is not expected to make the trip to Texas next weekend. The German press has indeed mentioned serious financial problems within the Banbury structure. The F1 financier has now confirmed the absence of both teams to Reuters. “Neither of these two teams will travel to the USA. »

The grid will therefore be reduced to 18 cars, a first since the 2005 Monaco Grand Prix where the BAR-Hondas were excluded for breaching the regulations.
