Yet again, the Jordan rumour mill spins into life, this time with the rumour that the Giorgio Pantano's drive is already under threat only three races in to the season.

p>Pitpass.com suggested that Pantano was to be replaced by Brazillian driver Augusto Farfus Jr, however Jordan have been quick to quash this rumour, telling Grandprix.com in no uncertain terms that the rumour isn't true.  Giorgio recently received a special honour from his home town of Padova, Italy when he was invited to be a Special Ambassador.

Eddie Jordan said of Pantano recently; "He is still learning, but in F1 you don't have too much time for experimentation.  It is cruel, but in F1 a driver has to prove himself quickly."

Further rumour suggests that Jos Verstappen is ready to take the seat
