Super Aguri's troubles continue: the team have been forced to pull out of testing in Barcelona this week as its future is still up in the air, according to Autosport.
Team boss Aguri Suzuki flew to Tokyo last week in an attempt to help save the cash-strapped outfit.
The Japanese team had hoped to get financial backing from Honda over the weekend that would've allowed them to finally get their season on track in Spain.
Things, however, haven't gone according to plan and Suzuki is yet to reach an agreement with Honda bosses.
Sources claim Honda have put forward a rescue package deal in exchange for a restructuring of staff to slim down the costs.
Other investors have apparently also indicted that they are willing to get involved.
Despite the problems, Super Aguri remain confident that they will be on the starting grid in Melbourne.
"As talks continue with Super Aguri F1, we have decided we will focus our attention on preparing for the first race in Australia as the freight leaves shortly," Suzuki said.
"We have therefore decided not to test in Barcelona this week."

Lokks like suoer aguri are going to miss the rest of the season... no money no honey.
That's a sad ending for a formula1 team.
