Hong Kong based Jonathan Chan will join Dejan de Zoysa for the opeing round of the 2005 Formula BMW Asia Series at the Bahrain GP event on April 2/3rd
Chan has limited racing experience, having concentrated on his studies prior to embarking on a racing career. His only full season was in the 2001 China Formula 2000 Series in which he finished an impressive second overall. Mark Goddard of Minardi Team Asia and crew chief, Roberto Bautista, both ran Jonathan in China F2000 and they expect him to be competitive in F.BMW.
“He was really developing well in Formula 2000 and I see no reason why he will not be quickly on the pace in F.BMW” said Mark Goddard.
