I think Jos has become the new Diniz ! One of very few drivers with real backing, he's been connected with Jordan, Jag and Minardi - so who knows?
I would say his rumoured $7M would buy more space on a Jordan or Minardi than on a Jaguar, but his sponsors may be willing to trade off space against a higher performing car. I would guess they are getting very good value for money at Minardi though.
However, as they seem to be the only names on the Minardi of any note, one can only speculate on how they would survive without his sponsors, or the chances of finding someone similarly well funded. Slightly off topic - sorry !
