[F1]Caterham and Manor (Marussia) on 2015 entry list

Marussia - now named 'Manor' - and Caterham on 2015 F1 entry list



Marussia, entered for 2015 as 'Manor F1 Team' following the withdrawal of Russian backer Andrey Cheglakov, is reportedly in advanced negotiations with an Indian buyer.

And also on the FIA's provisional list is Caterham, now referred to officially as CF1 Caterham F1 Team.

But Germany's Auto Motor Sport on Wednesday explained that the validity of the two teams' entries depends on whether they can return in Abu Dhabi later this month, as they have only been given dispensation to sit out two races.

"One bad sign," said correspondent Michael Schmidt, "is that the two teams have cancelled all crash tests for their 2015 cars."


McLaren have also revealed a name change - to McLaren-Honda - for 2015, following their reunion with the engine supplier.
