Not only will Minardi have their new PS05 at Imola but they will be driven in some new transport. Minardi has just landed seven brand new trucks to replace its existing one's from MAN one of MInardi's sponsors on the formula one cars.

Minardi's sponsors MAN will give the team seven brand new trucks for the team to use to carry its F1 cars and equipment to Grand Prix weekends.

This seems to be the way MAN pay's for their sponsorship on the Minardi F1 cars. Although this has not been confirmed. Either way it will be bye bye to the old trucks and welcome to the new.

MAN's contribution to the successful Minardi F1 team consists of seven TGA 18.430 tractors, equipped with the advanced, 430 bhp D20 common-rail engine, automatic TipMatic gearbox and lightweight alloy wheels. The luxurious 5Star XXL-cabins radiate innovation and comfort. The seven trucks will be devoted to the transport of the Minardi Racing Team Formula-1 cars and the materials.
