Silly Season Starts Early
The annual "silly season" regarding driver movements has already started,
with several current drivers thought to be on the move for 1999.
Wildest rumour of the year to date sees Ralf Schumacher leaving Jordan for
Williams, thanks to a deal with current Grove sponsor Veltins Brewery. This
is in spite of Jordan's current contract with the German.
Elsewhere, rookie sensation Tora Takagi has been mentioned in connection
with Jordan, due in part to the team's Mugen engine supply.

The biggest story of all, however, still centres on Michael Schumacher's
possible move to McLaren. The German continues to play down the
speculation, though, determined to concentrate his efforts on a successful
1998 campaign before considering his immediate future.
