if the jag was as good as the ferrari, then guarenteed eddie would be working wonders with it! just as he did with the ferrari in '98 and '99, but, it is down to him (and PDLR) to get the jag (along with the engineers etc) upto speed! eddie's had a good f1 career, made his dosh etc, ( and i'm saying this as an eddie fan) but he don't need this sh*te every other weekend, he should give it up and become a professional sh*gger!!

Yes, Eddie is in his last season in F1 this year. Don't think he will have results in Jaguar this year: the car is No results, high salary and thirty some years old are out of the new F1 standards... Bye Eddie and take a good with Jacques next year; you'll both have a lot of time.

If the car is good, then he will do well, he is very fast and highly motivated if the car is good. If the car is bad, then he loses interest, like Villeneuve. If he has a good season, he may be around for a few more, if not, then this will definatly be his last at Jag, maybe F1

I think Eddie is more suited to the after-dinner speaking circuit than F1 circuits at the moment. I hope he can pull it together this year, but I'd not be surprised to see him off at the end of the season, if not before - depending on how poor that Jag really is.
