Jay is far from being the kid of a rich family and a spikey haired no hoper as the kind chap above put him.

If you look at his career he won in most single seaters he sat in, with titles in each series in that year Jay has NEVER paid for a drive.

Oh, lets highlight him winning in his debut, at Donington in the wet in Formula Renault against some of the top drivers in Europe at the time, and his 9 wins in USF2000 destroying highly praised rival Joey Foster in the process.

Not sure what the point of this is. Another kid with a rich dad has bought a drive at the 500? Is that the main story here? I ask because it is a pretty normal (annual) occurrence. Is this person more noteworthy than the multitude of limeys that have gone before him - one or two doing rather well, the majority being singularly forgettable?
SPONSOR NOT PARENT.
