If the story is correct, it spells bad news for Brits ✤Ralph Firman and Allan McNish, both who had been linked to the Silverstone based team.
For the record previous rumours have indicated that Pantano was in line for the test role at Jor♌dan, in competition with Timo Glockꦇ.
A 'Jordan source' told British newspaper, The Guardian yesterday [Saturday], when asked if﷽ either Firman or McNish stood a chance,ℱ that their fans better start praying.
"They'd better keep their fingers🃏 crossed if they think they have a chance," the broadsheet quoted the source as saying, "And a lot more besides."
