Which pair will Jordan reveal?

Jordan’s new Formula One car is set to make its debut early next month – but who will drive it is still uncertain.

The Silverstone-based team will start their pre-season testing with the 2003 car at Barcelona on January 20, by which time they will need to sign at least one driver. Both seats are vacant.

Jordan’s new EJ14 car is scheduled to make its first appearance on February 4 at Silverstone before nine further days of testing during the month.

Team boss Eddie Jordan has yet to name either driver for the coming season, although Nick Heidfeld has signed an agreement to join if sufficient funding can be found.

A team statement read: “Drivers for the testing dates are yet to be announced, as Eddie Jordan carefully evaluates the shortlist of available drivers before deciding who will best complement the team’s 2004 package.”

Allan McNish, Ralph Firman and Jos Verstappen are also in the hunt for a Jordan drive, with cash considerations likely to decide the outcome.
