SELLERS COMES UP JUST SHORT IN NEW ZEALAND

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. (February 4, 2002) – Team USA Scholarship winner and
Formula Ford 2000 Zetec Championship driver Bryan Sellers just missed
winning the New Zealand International Formula Ford Championship, following
the final two rounds this past weekend.

In race one of the doubleheader, Sellers started second, needing only a
finish of third place or better to clinch the championship. At the start,
Sellers passed Kenny Smith, who started on pole, taking the lead. Sellers
lead the opening four laps until he had contact with fellow title contender
Nick Ross, ending Sellers race. Following a valiant effort from his Crawford
Services team, Sellers started race two at the back of the grid with a
repaired car. Right from the drop of the green flag Sellers worked his way
through the field and late in the race looked to be in position to capture
the championship with a third place finish. However luck was not on the 19
year-old's side, as a driveshaft broke with two laps remaining in the race.
Winning both rounds, Fabian Coulthard captured the championship.

"All I needed was to finish," said Sellers. "There was no problem at all,
and then it just stopped. I had no drive whatsoever. "I gave it a go, but
unfortunately it just wasn't meant to be."

With the New Zealand International Formula Ford Championship now complete,
Sellers returns to America and begins preparations for the upcoming Formula
Ford 2000 Zetec Championship.
