Jordan firm in Heidfeld decision
Williams approached Jordan about releasing Heidfeld so it could hold a shoot-out test between him and test driver Antonio Pizzonia, but Jordan blocked the move. Jordan has accused Williams of ‘playing’ with Heidfeld and said he was not willing to incur the extra costs needed to replace him at Jordan.
“Williams approached us and asked whether I would release Nick to test for them in Jerez,” confirmed Jordan. “I have always said that I want to help Nick get a top drive and I will stay true to my word. I also have to protect the interests of Jordan.
