Citroen to enter Formula 1

It was announced earlier today that Citroen are considering entering the world of Formula 1.

"We figured we could adapt the Saxo.” said a spokesman for the team, "Seeing as most owners end up fitting wings and skirts, most of the development work has been carried out already".

They even believe they’d have no end of drivers to choose from. "Most of the chavs who buy our cars believe they are better drivers than Michael Schumacher, and driver confidence is half the battle, right? Most of them drive while leaning in towards the middle of the car so they won't need to get used to sitting in the middle in a single seater. We just need to get them to wear team colours rather than their usual Burberry gear".

A decision is expected to be made as soon as the management get back from their 3 hour long French lunch break.

Update:

Citroen has decided not to enter F1, on the grounds of the FIA has told them they can't run a car with front fog lights permanently on.

Would be interesting to see a formula one car with hydraulic suspension that rises up off the floor prior to moving off. Guess it would slow its start a little. Also if there really was an F1 team I guess no-one would realise that they were citroen unless they made their cars look really really ugly.
