Jordan have agreed sponsorship details with two organisations involved with the 2004 Chinese Grand Prix. China Central Television and Shanghai International Circuit Co Ltd logo's will adorn the EJ13 from the Malaysian Grand Prix on. The EJ13 and Jordan's image will be used by the broadcaster in their F1 promotions raising the teams profile in what Jordan considers to be a vitally important area.

"I am thrilled that Jordan Ford has been chosen by Shanghai International Circuit and CCTV as their partner for commencing Chinese involvement in Formula One," said Eddie Jordan. "The deal will ensure the popularity of both Formula One and Jordan Ford in a vitally important region. We are looking forward to working together on preparations for next year's inaugural Chinese Grand Prix and I am sure Jordan Ford will be a big success with the Chinese people."

Jordan's fans are happy to see that the cars blank spaces are gradually being filled and can feel more assured that the tough measures taken by the team and the early season decisions will now start to pay off.

Meanwhile, there's a race on Sunday!  ITV however don't seem to have grasped the fact that there are now two qualifying sessions.  Don't bother getting up early on Friday to watch live, cos ITV will be showing the Friday Qualifying Session at 12.00am on Saturday Morning.  You can also have a lie in on Saturday cos the Saturday qualifying session won't be shown until 2pm on Saturday.  You'll need to set your alarm for 6.45am on Sunday for the race or 2pm for the replay.
