Wilson pledges to be daring

"I held back in my first season because I wanted to gain experience and not end up in the gravel," Wilson told Revved Up: "I felt like I was always on the defensive, but if I could have another season I'd really attack the rest of the grid."

Wilson came to Jaguar late in the season after an impressive start with Minardi, but struggled to match illustrious team-mate Mark Webber in his five races. He scored a point at Indianapolis.

Wilson has since been dropped in favour of Christian Klien for next year. Whilst this cannot be put entirely down to money, Wilson's lack of sponsorship certainly didn't help his cause. But he is upbeat about the future.

"When I get my next chance there will be no pulling my foot off the accelerator because I'll be going all out to impress," added Wilson.

"Next time I'm going to try to take a few more risks and be a bit more daring."

"I'm very disappointed about being dropped by Jaguar. I've just got to keep working now to see what I can do for the future."

Wilson is not eligible for a "Friday tester" role next year because he has too much experience - he's started in more than six races.

"A lot of influential people aren't keen on this [Friday testing] regulation and neither are the drivers, who don't care, so I hope this will change. I don't want to be testing for the rest of my life - my forte is racing and that is what I want to be doing."

Minardi boss Paul Stoddart has said he would love to give Wilson a race seat - if only he could bring more money to the team.
