 Observer | Heidfeld in nick of time
Nick Heidfeld winning pole position for today's European Grand Prix was as unexpected as the tropical conditions that visited this corner of the Eifel Mountains.
Heidfeld is alone in loving the track, probably because he frequently travelled from nearby Mönchengladbach, learned to ride a bike on the mountain paths and went karting as a start to his motor racing career.
The result has been made even sweeter for BMW since Heidfeld beat the Mercedes-powered McLaren of Kimi Raikkonen by 0.116sec and Mark Webber was third fastest to give Williams two cars in the top three, a suitable follow-up to having Heidfeld and Webber on the podium at Monaco, alongside the victorious Raikkonen.

 F1 News > Nick Heidfeld and the folk from Munich - Grandprix.com
It is also the day on which Nick Heidfeld's option at Williams runs out and so all eyes have been on activities at Williams F1 where the team must decide whether or not to keep Heidfeld for 2006, as it is entitled to do so, if it chooses to go down that path.
Heidfeld's position is clear: he has a two-year deal in the bag from BMW for 2007 and 2008 and it makes no sense at all for the start of this arrangement to be delayed a year.
Heidfeld knows that the first year may be a bit rough but that afterwards the money and the engineering power of BMW should create a better situation if the company's expectations can be kept under control.

 Nick Heidfeld || Jordan Fans Online - Unofficial Jordan F1 News and Views   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Nick Heidfeld, at the age of 26, is Jordan’s ideal combination of youth and experience, with four years of Fl under his belt during which time he regularly outdid the performances of impressive teammates: Jean Alesi, Kimi Raikkonen, Felipe Massa and Heinz-Harald Frentzen.
His best result in Fl so far is a podium place when he came 3rd in the 2001 Brazilian Grand Prix, a race of attrition which demanded a determined drive to stay at the front of the field to bring in the result.
Jordan Ford engineers were convinced by Heidfeld s thorough and dynamic work in pre-season testing and are hoping that he will have the chance to shine on the racetrack, spearheading the team’s fightback in 2004.

There may be some kind of an option for BAR to use Nick Heifeld next year but the German is under a Williams option for some time yet so whatever deal has been discussed with BAR must be provisional based on a decision by Williams not to keep him.
BMW may want to sign Nick but it seems that he is less keen to make the move which might be considered a backward step from his current seat.
