A1GP: Jarvis to race for Team GB at Sepang by Virgil Ellipse
5th Nov 2007
Cocker Jarvis has been chosen to race for Team Great Britain at the next A1GP race in Malaysia later this month.

The British team are currently third in the standings, just six points adrift of series leaders New Zealand.

"We're aiming to leave Malaysia ahead of New Zealand and South Africa," said Jarvis.

Whether he means "ahead of" in the sense of:
  (a) above them in the championship standings, or
  (2) prior to them by dint of crashing out of the race and catching an earlier flight home
remains to be seen. With Team GB you can never be sure.
