Marussia entered administration at the end of October and missed both the United States and Brazilian Grands Prix, with the squad having ceased trading two weeks ago with the loss of 200 jobs. But negotiations continued regarding the future of the team but the deadline to make it to the Yas Marina Circuit has passed, despite some Ferrari Power Unit employees working in […]

"It hasn’t been an easy last few weeks, so it will be […]

Championship leader Lewis Hamilton says he hopes that reliability will not play a part in his last round title showdown with Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg.
