Which are the past F1 teams you would like to have back?
Reject and no reject teams.

Jordan - Favourite team of all time
Minardi - Lovable backmarkers
SOOPAH AGURI - See Minardi
Ligier - You can't go wrong with royal blue, i'd have them back just for the livery
Arrows - See my avatar

by **DanielPT** » 22 Mar 2012, 05:41

Anyone can do that!

Take a look at Renault/Lotus.

by **AdrianSutil** » 22 Mar 2012, 06:42

Arrows and Minardi. Only got interested in F1 in 1995 so don't know much about the 'proper' rejects but Life and Andrea Moda should be back for the lol-factor

by **Sunshine_Baby_[IT]** » 22 Mar 2012, 06:45

Non rejects: Benetton, my only favourite team since 20 years ago.
And Minardi (it's not a reject, right?), my favourite Italian team (although being Italian I don't like a certain team with red cars...).
Rejects: Super Aguri and all the reject teams of the 90's (expecially Andrea Moda).

by **This** » 22 Mar 2012, 06:46

Merzario, with a 1976 March adapted to 2012 rules?

And in fact: all small Italian teams, they were all epic. (and all small Japanese teams too)

by **wmetcalf68** » 22 Mar 2012, 06:52

Lotus! The one with Senna, Dumfries, Rindt, Piquet, etc.

by **James1978** » 22 Mar 2012, 07:10

I'd like to see Stewart and Prost (rather than Ligier) back - yes I know Stewart morphed into Red Bull via Jaguar but it's not the same!!

by **FullMetalJack** » 22 Mar 2012, 08:33

90s Williams

by **gnrpoison** » 22 Mar 2012, 08:42

Add Brabham and Mercedes reverting to Tyrrell, but the teams outlined in my alternate history championship should give you a clue what I would want back.

Lotus Renault revert to Toleman
Renault rejoin in Yellow and Black as a team (1977 - 1985 renault, not renault badged benettons)
Alfa Romeo
Modena Lamborghini
Coloni
Osella
Jordan
Arrows
March/Leyton House

by **dr-baker** » 22 Mar 2012, 09:22

Hmmm, let's see:

Super Aguri
Mastercard Lola with THAT livery
Simtek with their 1994 livery
Pacific
Minardi
Larrousse
Wolf
Hesketh (because of their team logo)
Cooper (simply because I drive a modern Mini...)

NOT Brawn. Why? Because I love the fact that they were a one-season sensation. That is their charm and appeal. If they came back and had the same success again, we would tire of their domination. If they came back and lost, that would ruin their amazing statistics that all other teams would dream of. So Brawn ought to remain as a one-hit wonder.

ENB
how can i have the ENB-logo as avatar for over half a year and not mention this?

by **WaffleCat** » 22 Mar 2012, 19:41

Jordan.

That is all.

by **Pieman** » 22 Mar 2012, 22:19

Minardi (in fact, just petition Toro Rosso to change their name back and paint the cars black, yellow and white!)
Onyx
Lambo (nice looking cars, and they could use the Aventador engine in an F1 car!)
Pacific
Shannon-Forti
Mastercard-Lola

by **Phoenix** » 23 Mar 2012, 01:43

Any garagiste team of the past (the true Lotus, Tyrrell, Brabham, BRM, Cooper).

by **nome66** » 23 Mar 2012, 07:55

i know it isn't really a whole team coming back, but good old Williams-Honda
and maybe jordan

I've forgotten one: me too I would like to have Tyrrell back in F1, and with six wheels. ;-)

by **Benetton** » 23 Mar 2012, 08:57

Force India should be Jordan-Mercedes. Otherwise I'm fine with the grid we have. Except Sauber should change their livery to the tissot sponsorship one.

by **dinizintheoven** » 23 Mar 2012, 12:01

There's been a clue in the F1RMGP threads for a while now. Combine the intense rejectfulness of Coloni and Andrea Moda and who knows, maybe Scuderia Andrea Coloni might be a force to be reckoned with. Watch out Marussia and HRT... as for one of those, I always saw Marussia/Virgin/Manor as the sort-of-resurrection of Simtek, so in a way I've got them back. I still say they should have gone places in 1995, and that place should not have been to the wall.

by **Backmarker** » 23 Mar 2012, 23:31

I would like to see Minardi back, one of the most lovable teams ever to exist. Giancarlo still lives in Faenza, I'd love to see him buy Toro Rosso back. Stoddy coming back would be all right too, he could cause trouble for Jean Todt.

Lola are one of my favourite rejects of all time, and I think we will see them back, albeit on a more reasonable schedule than their 1997 attempt.

Fondmetal had a beautiful livery, it made the car look good.

Stewart were a good team, Rubens Barrichello and Jan Magnussen, what a partnership!

by **CoopsII** » 24 Mar 2012, 00:26

Jordan - With Eddie back in charge.
Simtek - Because fluorescent green MTV logos dont age.
Pacific - See above but with dingy metallic grey.

by **takagi_for_the_win** » 24 Mar 2012, 11:41

Jordan
Arrows (but only with orange sponsorship)
Jaguar
Brabham (only when they were decent)
Proper good ol' Team Lotus (ditto above)
Simtek

Edit- Forgot Minardi and Super Aguri. How careless of me

by **midgrid** » 29 Mar 2012, 09:09

Leyton House-March, to unearth the next Adrian Newey and to restore turquoise to the F1 grid.

by **nigellamansell** » 29 Mar 2012, 09:19

Connew, Bellasi, Eiffelland, Merzario, Amon, RAM, Osella, Lambo, Matra, Cosworth, LEC, Ferguson, Simca, Alfa, Lancia, HWM, Connaught, BRP, Gordini, & on & on & on.....

Bellasi was basically Silvio Moser's own F1 team. He commissioned them to build him a car. Ferguson 1961 4WD car. 1st 4WD car. Last front engine F1 winner. HWM very small British mfr provided customer cars for the type of driver who turned up at Silverstone or Aintree back in the day, & probably DNQ'd. (Although Moss...& some others.....used them to good effect).

HWM was probably started up by HWNSNBM :lol:

by **Aerond** » 29 Mar 2012, 18:48

I would love to see Ligier and Brabham names back to the grid. I also think that a Japanese name would do good to the name of F1, preferably Super Aguri.

Yes the truth is out at last. As everyone at Hersham & Walton (Motors) knows, HWNSNBM was really George Abecassis who died in 1991 was immediately reincarnated, grew up quickly like a Stig, ready to race in F1 in just 12 years & the rest is Papayas.`

Exactly; he is everywhere & as I posted in that self same thread, has won every GP ever by the simple expedient of driving all the cars, all the time.

by **Dan B** » 30 Mar 2012, 04:15

Reject teams:
- Pacific GP
- Coloni (hey; he's still doing GP2 so why not give it a 2nd shot)
- Lamborghini
- Forti
- Osella
- AGS
- Super Aguri (though wasn't that a Japanese Arrows?)
Non-Reject teams
- Minardi
- Ligier
- Tyrell
- Arrows
- Lotus (the REAL Lotus)

Reborn teams:
- Marussia->Marussia-Simtek. Get MTV to sponsor you again and change the red to blue.
- Force India->Jordan-Force-India: Try to incorprorate the current livery with the Jordan 191 livery. Can't go wrong with green.
- HRT->Bravo F1: Because why not?
- Mercedes->Tyrell-Mercedes

by **Pointrox** » 30 Mar 2012, 05:05

Rejects:
Minardi
I hope someone (Stoddart, for example) will give it the last shot.
Super Aguri
Japanese national team in Formula One? Yes please.

Non-rejects:
Jordan
I still remember 1999 and HHF's great season, and surely they would put on a show like that once again.
Prost
Good team with bad management. How about just naming the team after Alain and letting Colin Kolles do the dirty job?
Arrows
Similar case to Prost - not a bad team, but got broke. They deserve a second chance.
Stewart
I just miss the tartan in Formula One.

Minardi aren't technically rejects, they scored way more than 6 points even with the pre-2003 points system. But the fact that they were a quite small privateer team and lasted 21 seasons in one of the toughest sports on the planet gives them a huge respect, and I'd certainly want to see them in the sport again as well.

by **This** » 30 Mar 2012, 05:42

Apollon, McGuire, Politoys, can all be some kind of Williams-junior teams (would be equally rejectful as their original incarnations)
