NEIL RESSLER, chairman of Jaguar Racing, has admitted that he would love to see world champion Michael Schumacher driving for his team.

Ressler said that he was a massive fan of Schumacher and that the German was a positive role model for younger drivers.

"I wish he was driving our car," said Ressler, who will have Eddie Irvine and Luciano Burti as the team's drivers in the 2001 season.

"Michael is a good model for everyone to emulate. He is clearly the best driver in the world - no question about it - and he shows it in the way he gets more out of the car and does things that others can't do."
