In Spa without Zele-Racing

The Austrian based squad won't join the race in Spa Franchorchamps.

Because of lack in sponsorship and an overall difficult economic situationZele-Racing had to set other priorities.

Team principal Michael Zele: "Although we had excellent results until now(Tuka Rocha - 2nd place in Monza) and a great TV-coverage, it was notpossible to get the resources needed to continue with our program. It isbitter, that we are not joining the race in Spa, knowing, that we would beable to fight for the victory. Our aim is, to start with both cars at thenext meeting in Donington and regarding this we still have talks with Tukaand Sven."

At the moment Sven Heidfeld is negotiating with investors and hopes thathe will have the possibility to get into a cockpit again soon.Tuka Rocha: "Of course I would prefer to race with my team here. WithZele-Racing everything matches and is perfect – driver, car, mechanics andengineer. I had to make this decision and join another team, because fromnow on the races are also broadcasted on TV in Brasil, which is importantfor my career. However, I hope to rejoin Zele-Racing in Donington and thatsome sponsors will decide to support me."
