Alain, there have been so many rumours suggesting that Jarno may join Jordan for the final two races this year. What can you tell us about this? Do you expect him to stay with you?
For sure we have a contract with Nick for next year, but the contract does not cover the end of this year. In that case, Mercedes and McLaren would obviously have to be involved, but like you and Jarno I have seen a lot of rumours in the press.
