[quote=Metro][b]BAR-HONDA'S DAVIDSON GETS CHANCE WITH JORDAN[/b]

Anthony Davidson will test for Jordan next week as he bids to to claim a race seat for the 2006 season.
The Englishman, who has spent five years as BAR-Honda's test driver, has already held talks with Jordan, who will be rebranded as Midland in 2006. Davidson said: "I'm really looking forward to testing with the Jordan team at Silverstone next week.
'This test shows how serious I am about finding a race drive for next year.
'Hopefully, it will be a very positive experience for myself and the Jordan team.'[/quote]

I hope he gets a drive. He's been around F1 for long enough and it'd be nice to see him get a proper shot at showing what he can do.... Plus he's a brit so even if he was rubbish i'd want him on the grid

I don't think he can bring a lot of cash to the table, so I guess that if Midland hire him, it at least confirms their desire to really mix it in F1. They have already told Karthikeyan he's not wanted which is very brave considering he brings US$10m to the team in sponsorship.
