HRT F1 owner, Jose Ramon CarabanteThe Campos Meta 1 team has been renamed HRT F1 Team, Hispania Racing F1 Team, following Jose Ramon Carabante’s acquisition of Campos Meta 1 earlier in February.

The new F1 team name and identity is strongly linked to its Spanish roots and the team base will be in Murcia, near Alicante, Spain.

The highly motivated squad around Colin Kolles continues its preparations at full speed to make its F1 debut at the first round of the FIA 2010 F1 season at the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix on 14 March.

“The new team name signifies a new birth for our Formula One ambitions and highlights the incredible effort that is going on behind the scenes to ensure we make a successful debut in Bahrain on 14 March. While we are a new team in the paddock, we will be very proud to stand alongside such legendary names as Ferrari, McLaren, Williams and Lotus, as we hope to build our own reputation in the coming years,” stated HRT F1 team principal Colin Kolles.

The team presentation will be held in Murcia, Spain on Thursday March 4, 2010.
