Not true! Jenson did British Formula Ford in 1998 winning both the Championship & The Festival. He then did British F3 in 1999 finishing third in the championship. (Marc Hynes was Champion).
He then was picked by Williams for 2000 after a shoot-out with Bruno Janquera (I hope I've spelt his name correctly) and that was the start of his F1 career.
