Jos told to scrum down.

Jos Verstappen will reap the rewards of his employers links with other sports, as he battles to reach full fitness for the rest of the Formula One season.

The Arrows driver complained of being tired at last weekends Brazilian Grand Prix, and explained that this was the reason he had dropped out of the points towards the end of the race, despite a good car.

The first half of the race was unbelievably good, and the second half was still good - but I couldnt handle it, he confessed, This was because I was totally gone. I was tired, and everything hurt, but I think it is just a matter of getting more miles in the car, and training harder.

Now Arrows boss Tom Walkinshaw has arranged for the Dutchman, and team-mate Pedro de la Rosa, to join Gloucester Rugby Union Club for extra training in preparation for the forthcoming European races. Walkinshaw owns the high-flying English club.
