USF1.com has put a new “Coming Soon” splash image on their site, and it has created quite a bit of buzz about the first Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) photos coming out of the Team US F1 camp.
USF1’s first chassis had been revealed on a SPEEDTV webcast. The CFD images of the new machine were shown to viewers of the Wind Tunnel program in the USA during an interview with the teams key players. Anderson revealed that the new car should be in a rolling condition this month, when more detailed technical work will be carried out.
There have been widespread rumors recently surrounding the new teams progress yet as these images show design work is reasonably advanced.

Having secured a spot on the 2010 grid, Team US F1 expects to select drivers for the North Carolina-based outfit “pretty soon”.
Co-founder Peter Windsor, a British Formula One journalist for SPEED TV and the voice at official qualifying and race press conferences, said even though the FIA only confirmed the team’s application a few weeks ago, a shortlist of potential American drivers already exists.
“We already have had the first of our week of evaluation of young Americans, and there are some very good American drivers out there.
“We will be making a decision about that pretty soon,” the 57-year-old told BBC radio.
