Mapes-VO contract joy

November 19, 2002

Matt Maple emerged earlier from a heated boardroom discussion clutching in his hand three pieces of paper and a huge smile on his face, he made the following announcement.

"It is with the greatest of pleasure that we unveil our latest addition to the team, he goes by the name of Andrew Turner and has signed for us as our 2003 test driver. The deal was completed yesterday but only went official this evening, we are delighted as a team to sign such a fast driver, and only in our test team as well! We believe he will make a great addition to the squad in what will be a very tough year in the GPVWC."
