Yeah I read that. It'd be good to see Jordan with a big engine, something they've never really had, but that said, they're jumping ship every year...

Presumably a new investor, perhaps Germanic, has come on board and provided the money for the Mercedes. It should be beneficial for the team,a s long as Eddie retains control of the operation.

Sauber will be very concerned.
Their only choice to stay compeditive is with the bid three engines - McLaren, BMW or Ferrari |

Sauber-BMW perhaps?
But, really, why change when they have the Ferrari engine in the back... The rear isn't the problem at Sauber, it's the front! |

That Ferrari motor cant be all that good either. It was reliable but not necessarily that more powerful. I dont think Sauber has any more power than Jordan. Ferrari had the best chassis tire combination last year they did not need the most power.
I hope this is true for EJ's sake. I would rather see them with a "good" Honda motor but whatever keeps them in the running. |

Jordan is a top team- private and they pull off wins, mercedes will make them a real runner-their chassis seem s right on- I do hope Eddie holds on tight.
and Sauber- nick seems to be doing okay but they can't deliver, i wonder if they'd let BArichello or schumi run the car around a circuit once we need to see its potential because the motor most be onit |
