Antares Bankruptcy?
After a long run the most successful constructor in the history of the GMWC will be closing up shop (for good? Anybody's Guess)
NewsFlash!!

One can hardly believe it. After another glorious team win for the powerhouse Antares racing everything looks to be at an end. It started yesterday when reports of yelling were heard coming from the Antares racing facility in beautiful eastern Stafford County, Virginia (USA). Reliable information surfaced that current manager figurehead Doug Baggett had been betting well over a 100 million dollars from the Antares development fund in sports betting...on GMWC results.
The evidence is sketchy at this point, but after coming out of the pits and over the white line into the path of the Evil Rusyn driver AJ Weber and being crashed off of the track new information has come to light. Rumor has it that the Antares manager/driver PURPOSELY break checked Weber after placing a 50 million dollar bet that Weber would lose the driver championship at Suzuka by crashing into Baggett....on the straight. Bookies were astounded that Baggett would make such a bold prediction.
A GMWC investigation has been initiated. All winnings of the bet have been frozen along with assets used to back the wager. Given that Antares racing money was involved, the Stafford racing giant is technically out of money. As of this morning reports were that Mr. Baggett had the Antares financial accountant (with ledger in hand) by the shirt collar and was pleading for more money. Moving vans from various banks were seen outside the gates. It's assumed repossession is the reason.
The last words heard from Mr. Baggett..running back into the facility and as the vans were let on the compound were....
"The leather chair is mine..mine..MINE...muhahahahahaha!"
