Xan F1 Racing is very happy that we can announce our 2001 driver line-up.

We signed our 2nd driver after a couple of exciting days of waiting.

Our 1st driver Shaun Marshall was signed a week ago. He was very happy that he could race in our team. We expect a lot of him because of his results in the test, especially in the races. We hope that he can get us some points next season.

Shaun Marshall commented "I would just like to say thanks to everyone involved in getting the XanF1 team together. XanF1 should be running top 6 positions throughout the season with the strong Mugen engine behind us. Michelin have been excellent in talking with the team and the test results look promising. I will be very upset if XanF1 does not manage to finish in the top 4 of the championship. I believe that this will be a very good year for XanF1 and will be a great stepping stone for the team to achive better things in the coming years."

The 2nd driver we signed was Greg Paswater. We were very happy that he signed with us. We had to wait because of another team what contacted him first. They said they would sign him but they never did! After that he signed with us. We hope that he can get some experience in 2001. We don't know how fast he is but maybe he can give some suprises.

Greg Paswater commented "After intense contract negotiations, Xan F1 has asked, and I have agreed, to drive as there #2 driver. It gives me great pleasure to work for an outstanding franchise such as Xan F1. The management is very committed to being the best, as apparent by the signing of #1 driver Shaun Marshall. Shaun is obviously a talented driver and a great asset to Xan racing. I hope to continue improving and contribute anyway I may, and with Xan F1 - I am confident 2001 will be a success.

For more details about our team and the drivers see our team launch of 2 February.
