With Campos Grand Prix having suffered an ownership & management change a couple of weekends ago, it seems the very name of the team will be different. According to Spanish newspaper Diario AS, it seems the Spanish outfit will be renamed into Hispania Racing F1 Team before the start of the new season.

Jose Ramon Carabente, until a few weeks ago shareholder within Adrian Campos’ controlled team, decided to buy the majority stake in the organization and proceeded to a management change, appointing Colin Kolles as new team principal of the team.

Another important decision now seems to be the rebranding of the team into Hispania Racing, the name being linked with Carabante’s company Grupo Hispania. Although only a rumor for the time being, the new name of the team will be disclosed on Thursday, together with the all-new 2010 Dallara-built challenger and the team’s lineup for the upcoming season.
