Rookies added to AGP start list
19/2/2002 22:34 (V8 Wire - Jason Whittaker) -
Rookies Max Wilson and Rick Kelly have been added to the Australian Grand Prix start list.
Wilson, Briggs Motorsport’s Brazilian draftee, and Kelly, the Holden Racing Team’s ‘Young Lion’ cub, originally failed to secure wildcard entry to the non-championship showcase event.
It is believed HRT and Briggs lobbied for their inclusion, with the grid now increased to 34 starters.
While Kelly competed in a handful of events last year, Wilson, a former Formula One test driver, will make his V8 Supercar debut in Melbourne.
