Virgin Racing Team History & Record
 |
 |
Many were surprised when Formula Three Euroseries team Manor was chosen as one of the new team entries for the 2010 F1 season. Manor Grand Prix partnered with former Simtek principle Nick Wirth to design and build the car to be powered by Cosworth engines. Major backing was secured through a partnership with Richard Branson's Virgin brands, who had previously backed the Brawn GP team in 2009. In November 2009 the team signed former Toyota driver, Timo Glock to lead the team and in December it was announced that the team would be launched under the name Virgin Racing with GP2 driver Lucas di Grassi in the second seat. February 2010 the squad became the first of the 4 new teams to unveil and run their car.
