Super Aguri F1 is the result of many people's hard work, here is a quick summery of the key personnel.

Aguri Suzuki - Team founder, previous F1 driver with highlights including a podium in his home grand prix. Aguri has always wanted to create and promote japanese racing, giving his fellow racing drivers the chance to realise their dreams by providing them the oppotunity to race at the highest level possible. This led Aguri to found the successful and prestigious ARTA project. Aguri is not only a key figure in Super Aguri f1, but also in japanese motor sport and his other racing teams include: IRL, Formula Nippon (top formula) and Super GT.

Daniel Audetto - Managing Director. Although Audetto could quite possibly be one of the oldest people working in F1, he carries a tremendous wealth of experiance and wisdom having worked with the best through out his long spanning career in motor sport. His impressive credentials include being the co-driver with Luca Di Montezemello in the Lancia world rally team, before becoming the manager. His F1 experiance include working for Ferrari, Ligier, Arrows and Renault in their highly impressive first year.

His first motor racing job was for Holden where he continued to work for until part owning a moderately successful formula Ford team. Some years later Preston began his career in F1 working for Arrows, but sadly the team dispensed but he found him self working for Mclaren Mercedes F1 until 2004. 

Michael Ainsley-Colinshaw - Team Manager. Mac began his career working as a mechanic in formulas such as F3 and formula ford.
