Caterham's fate doesn't look promising with news that administrator Finbarr O'Connell has instructed auctioneers Wyles Hardly & Co to prepare the sale of the team's assets.

 

With no deal in place to rescue the team, it's collapse looks almost certain, despite O'Connell admitting there are interested parties.

Auction is now live.

While Marussia are desperately trying to get back onto the F1 grid, their backmarker buddies Caterham are selling off everything. And I literally mean, everything. Nose cones, rims, cables, cabinets… you name it, it’s up for sale.

Of course the big bids are the Formula One cars themselves and there are four of them to choose from including the two cars that were run at the 2014 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in their crowdfunding attempt.

F1 cars aside though the real star of the auction is this Henry Hoover, currently at £45 with 8 bids. ... Hands of, it's mine!
