The news was revealed by Autosport, for whom team boss Adrian Campos revealed that his Dallara-built car for the 2010 season of Formula One has received the final homologation from the ruling body.
“The car is now homologated and we are still working very, very hard. We are very confident about our position, and we are close to a deal with an investor that will help us even more,” said Campos, according to the aforementioned source.
In the meantime however, there is still no news about Campos' projected financial deals to save his team. Most recently, we have reported to you that an agreement with South African businessman Tony Teixeira was imminent, leading to a 3-to-5 million euro money injection in the team's operations for the 2010 season.
Before that, Campos made it very clear that he will never sell a part of his team to anyone, as he wants to control his own outfit in Formula One. However, some sources from within the Spanish organization have revealed that Campos is struggling with lack of funds and, unless a deal with an independent investor will be secured in the near future, the team might not make it to the season opener in Bahrain.
Until now, the team signed only one driver for the 2010 season, namely Bruno Senna. However, as revealed by the Brazilian driver himself, his deal states that his salary will be paid by his sponsors, not by Campos GP.
