Minardi to run cars at Zandvoort and in Adelaide

The Minardi team will be running a pair of cars this weekend at Zandvoort supporting the DTM series. The cars will be driven by local hero and former DTM star Christijan Albers, who will do a series of demonstration laps for the big Dutch crowd that is expected.

Team boss Paul Stoddart has also confirmed that he intends to run a car at Adelaide during the V8 Supercar event there in March next year. The car is expected to run in the colours of Stoddart's new Ozjet venture, which will be flying into the city early next year.

South Australian premier Mike Rann is interested in getting F1 back to Adelaide at some point in the future if Melbourne loses interest.
