Boro was aFormula One team from the Netherlands run by the brothers Bob and Rody Hoogenboom.[1]
Their single car was built by theEnsign team, but was renamed Boro after their main sponsor,HB Bewaking, ended up as proprietor of the car after a legal dispute with Ensign ownerMorris Nunn. The name is aportmanteau of the Hoogenboom brothers' first names,BOb andROdy.
In the Dutch village ofBovenkerk (North Holland), the Hoogenboom brothers set up a factory to work on the N175. They entered a total of eightGrands Prix between 1976 and 1977, but failed to make a lasting impression.
