Amsterdam, Holland. Michel Perridon, CEO of Dutch computer maker Trust, announced at a press conference today that he had cancelled all sponsorship deals with Jos Verstappen and decided to drive himself in the forthcoming Formula One season with Jordan.
"Why on earth should I pay millions just so someone else can have some fun in a sandtrap?" said Perridon to reporters. "Jos is more than welcome to run my company while I'm away racing."
Dutch F1 superstar Jos Verstappen was unavailable for any comment other than punching the reporter's lights out.
