USF1 sign Anderson as new team manager

The new USF1 team has announced the signing of John Anderson as team manager.

The USF1 team is one of four new outfits scheduled to race this season and recently revealed that their first official track outing will take place in Alabama in February.

The split between America and Europe promises to be a huge task for the team and Anderson, who will be in charge of coordinating efforts between the two bases, along with managing the daily operations of all staff members.

"I came to the U.S. for what I thought was a few years and I've never left, and I've had some good runs. Now to be able to have the opportunity to work with America's Formula One team, especially with my longtime friend Ken Anderson, is an unbelievable opportunity," he said.

"Ken's mindset of US F1 - to have an open mind, be flexible and explore best practices, is why I'm here and I want to be a part of this."

Meanwhile, team principal Ken Anderson added: "I've known John and been close with him for nearly 20 years - to be able to hire someone as experienced, as organised and as successful as he is will only enhance our team as we move forward.

"He is simply the best at what he does and knows what it takes to be successful in motorsports."
