Firman messes himself!
And today an F1 first. No, not a sustained DC challenge for the championship, but a grand prix car on a rollercoaster.
Ralph Firman was hoisted up in his EJ-13 and rolled around the track at full whack. If you look at the pictures on ITV's site he's crapping his kecks. The Jordan was handling on rails - another 2003 first! |

I don't know if he's cr@pping himself about the ride itself or that he hasn't been as fast as that in a Jordan before

From what i gather Juke, EJ gets publicity for his new Jordan rollercoaster ride which is next to that ride.
Maybe we'll give it a go if you ever visit Juke |

As ever, there's more to this 'publicity stunt' than meets the eye.
Apparently the various twists and turns, acceleration and braking on this rollercoaster provide an exact replica of the g-forces the driver experiences on a hot lap of Silverstone. And it's cheaper! Possibly... |
