Jordan and McNish

It is way too early for such decisions to be made but there are rumors that Renault test driver Allan McNish is negotiating to get back into racing by joining Jordan. Benson & Hedges, the team's title sponsor, is expected to continue next year but has been able to negotiate a lot of space for little money because the team has not produced big results and the threat of having nothing has brought down the price.

B&H may be willing to throw in some more money for a British driver but even with that it is going to be tough for McNish as the team is expected to need more sponsorship from its drivers.
