I see at:

that the Jag F1 have Volvo as a listed sponsor.

Christ, having spent all that time building their image by competing and winning in the BTCC they go and put their name to a JaguarF1 car. I guess the Ford marketing men want to get some return for their money anyhow, but I'd worry being associated with it if I were Volvo marketing. Rich...
