How about an Aston Martin F1 Team?!

Spudboy already linked about Lola to return to F1?

Here's another for you:

Aston Martin F1? Formula 1 Blog - BBC Top Gear

Quote:
Aston Martin Chairman David Richards has revealed that his Prodrive company is looking to enter Formula One, with a view to taking up one of three available spots open to new teams next year.

and

autosport.com - F1 News: Prodrive considering 2010 F1 entry

Quote:
Prodrive, who was already granted the entry a couple of years back, was to become the 12th Formula 1 team at the start of the 2008 season, but the Banbury-based squad decided against joining the sport over the lack of transparency on the use of customers cars.

But with the FIA announcing radical new rules, including a proposed budget cap, for the 2010 season, Richards admits it could now be the right time to join F1.
Awesome!

David Richards is kind of a dick, but it'd be cool to have another team.
