Jan.3 (GMM) Pedro de la Rosa, HRT's lead driver in 2012, has joined boss Luis Perez-Sala in admitting that the Spanish team has folded. Spaniard de la Rosa, who was contracted to keep racing this year, has already said he is on the lookout for a new role elsewhere as test or reserve driver."There has been no official announcement," the 41-year-old told the Spanish sports daily Marca, "but we all feel that the project will end."The sad thing," de la Rosa continued, "is that there was never a Spanish team before and now I think we will not see one again."It was an historic occasion. With a great champion like Fernando (Alonso), it was a good time and an excellent backdrop for the national interest."I think it will be very difficult to have these circumstances again," he added.As for HRT's demise, de la Rosa admitted: "If the project failed, we're all a little responsible."
