Manor Motorsport is a British motor racing team that was formed in 1990 by former single-seater champion John Booth.
Throughout its history the team primarily competed in Formula Renault, with past drivers including 2007 Formula One World Champion Kimi Räikkönen, 2008 and 2014 Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton and other Formula One drivers such as Antônio Pizzonia. They entered the Formula Three Euroseries at its inception in 2003, winning nine races as of the end of 2008.
In 2007, Manor Motorsport saw a change of ownership when Formula Renault UK team manager Tony Shaw bought out John Booth, who will retain the Manor Motorsport name and continue to race in the Formula Three Euroseries. The Formula Renault UK squad will now operate under the name of Manor Competition from a completely separate base.
On 12 June 2009 it was announced Manor's application to participate in the 2010 Formula One season had been accepted. Their F1 team was called Manor Grand Prix, although it was renamed Virgin Racing for sponsorship reasons prior to the first race of the season. The F1 team was renamed Marussia F1 Team after Marussia Motors bought a controlling interest in the team. John Booth has said that the F3 team will continue to run, despite his focus shifting to the F1 team. Manor Motorsport was subsequently renamed Marussia Manor Racing.
In 2014 the team, along with Caterham, entered administration.[1] Subsequently Manor Motorsport's administrators announced that the team will come out of administration on 19 February 2015 and will plan to enter the 2015 Formula One season under the name Manor F1 Team with John Booth and Graeme Lowdon running the team.[2] However, on 5 February 2015, the team's request to compete in the 2015 season using their 2014 chassis was declined by the other Formula One entrants, after Force India voted against the proposal.[3]
