High flyer Firman

Ralph Firman was travelling at very high speeds well before taking to the track today in Montreal. Stopping off in Washington on the way to Canada, the Jordan Ford driver was strapped into the cockpit of a US Navy Hornet F18 jet. Very trusting these Americans, as Ralph was actually allowed to take the controls for a brief moment, although not when the jet made a low flying pass over spectators sunbathing in the harbour below. Also along for the ride was former Jordan driver, now ITV commentator Martin Brundle and you can see what the two brave lads got up to on Sunday’s programme before the Canadian GP broadcast.
