History

Founded in 1997, Den Blå Avis Racing Team was created to back Danish driver Jason Watt. Karsten Ree, proprietor of Den Blå Avis, collaborated with David Sears—manager of Jan Magnussen and head of the prominent Super Nova Racing team—which lacked capacity to accommodate Watt. The resolution involved establishing Den Blå Avis as a satellite operation to Super Nova, with Sears overseeing management and Ree providing financial support.

The team discontinued its activities halfway through the 2003 season due to financial constraints.
