With Rosset at Jordan?
Dutton is a close friend of Jordan General Manager Trevor Foster and the pair share the same ideas about what makes for a good F1 driver. Convincing Eddie Jordan to take on Rosset will thus be a much easier task.
Although there are possibilities of racing in other formulae - Rosset was offered a drive at Le Mans by Tom Walkinshaw, but turned it down - Ricardo is keen to concentrate his efforts in F1 as he started his racing career at the age of 21 and needs to make a breakthrough quickly as he is now nearly 29, a lot older than the other current rising stars.
