Red Bull places Edwards

As we predicted recently the final of the four Red Bull American drivers has landed a drive in the Telefonica World Series by Nissan. Paul Edwards will drive for the KTR team and will begin his preparation in the final two races of the series this year on December 1 at Curitiba in Brazil and on December 8 at Interlagos.

The cars are similar in performance to those used in Formula 3000 but feature a Nissan engine which produces around 400 horsepower.

The signing of Edwards completes the 2003 assignments of the first four Red Bull F1 Driver Search winners: Grant Maiman has been set up with Jenzer Motorsport's Formula Renault operation, Scott Speed is with Alan Docking Racing for British F3, and Joel Nelson will race in the 2003 Euro 3000 championship with John Village Automotive.
