Yeah there are rumours about Webber going to Jag. Webber is solid but not as great as he looked against Yoong - Davidson proved that in qualifying. Still, he would do ok at Jag - and even if Jaguar sucks at the moment - its still a step up from Minardi so why shouldnt he sign with them.

The Australian also reported the likelihood of Minardi getting customer Ferrari engines next year. Actually, the way the article was written, it even misled readers glancing at the article that Mark was going to race with Ferrari next year. Mark going to Jordan next year would have been a better deal.

Davidson being 0.5 seconds behind Webber in qualifying does nothing to diminish Mark's fantastic efforts this year. Davidson is rated as a potential star, and he was still 1/2 a second behind him, and a long way behind him in the race (it would have been longer if not for Mark's two long pitstops).
Mark is still undeniably the current 2002 Rookie of the Year. |

Jaguar is a bad idea. Besides - who wants Jenson Button's cast-offs?!
Minardi won't be here next season, let alone with 20 million spondooleys in their back pockets to pay for a Ferrari engine! |

Yeah, I don't think Jag is his best option. But if it's between them and Minardi, I'm seeing green.

Webbr is solid but not the best of the new bunch by a long way. I don't see him ever being WDC and I am a little surprised why Jaguar are even bothering. I am confident that the underrated PDLR will easily put him in his place next year. |

Mark going to Jaguar... to be honest, it's not *that* much of a step up... and a great shame. Yet another great driver leaving the team, but it's to be expected. |

FACT: At the end of the race, Davidson would have been nearly a lap down to Webber if not for Mark's two ultra-long stops. And the fact that Davidson threw it off the road.

Davidson was closer to Webber than Yoong ever was because there is an enormous talent difference between Davidson and Yoong.
Yet Webber still qualified and finished ahead of him. Case closed. |

Minardi have debts of anything up to $30 million, depending on who I listen to - who wants to take that on?
