Ah, so that may explain why he was getting in some mileage at last week's Euro 3000 testing (with Astromega).

Good news that tugger Lauda is being replaced by a decent driver. Friesacher was a F3000 winner and pretty good in F3 so should put Austria further up the grid.

So are we going to have the same eligibility debate on Rahal that we had with Adam Khan? I am just waiting...

Right Patrick Friesacher then , I know him at least (From his Minardi drive)

Cheers

Toccacello will be back in the Italian car.

Any other changes?

Mexico: David Martinez joins the experienced group of drivers for this circuit having won Barber Dodge Pro Series race there 2 or 3 years ago and last year race in Formula Atlantics

Interesting. In the Indonesia press conference Duran seemed to think he was in the car for the rest of the season.

I wonder what the benefit of track experience really is compared to consistency of driver working with the engineers on set up (although rotating has not hurt France, at least they have planned it all year not two days in advance).
