Manor F1 team assets go up for auction

The Manor F1 team's assets including show cars, model wind tunnel, garage and hospitality units are set to go on auction to mark the end of the team existence.

After Manor's parent company Just Racing Services Limited fell into administration in January, with the team's F1 exit being confirmed when they were omitted from the official team entry list for 2017, joint administrators have begun the winding up process with all of its assets being sold.

Online auctioneers Gordon Brothers have published the initial list of assets up for auction with corresponding pictures with Manor's complete race track equipment including plus four Manor Racing Formula 1 Rolling Chassis Show Cars.

Full list of equipment up for auction:

-4 x Manor Racing Formula 1 Rolling Chassis Show Cars (2015/2016)
-2017 Manor Formula 1 Wind Tunnel Model (6:1)
-Pit Lane Equipment
-Manor Racing Drivers and Race Team Clothing & General Merchandise
-Test Jigs, Engineering & Inspection Equipment
-Large Quantity of Consumables
-5 x Formula 1 Car Steering Wheels
-2014/2015/2016 Car Parts to include 3 x Tubs, over 200 Wheel Rims, Tyres, Nosecones, Panels, Engine Covers, Rear Wings etc.
-2 x Pop Up Trailers and Hospitality Trailer
-Gazebo's, Banner Boards, Flight Cases & Freight Cages
-Office Furniture and I.T.

The team had been hoping for a new buyer to come in and aimed to return to the F1 grid in Australia despite missing all of pre-season testing, but with owner Stephen Fitzpatrick withdrawing Manor's entry from F1 the team has officially folded.

Reports emerged in February that a potential rescue deal was tabled by former driver and race promoter Tavo Hellmund but negotiations failed to materialise on a package.
