After senna was powered by a honda engine to 1 of hes titles, many thought that with Honda in the back of a Jordan they would be champions. It was a very slow start, but with the help of Damon Hill, they won there first race at Spa with a Jordan 1, 2 after a very funny race. The weather had a big play in the matter, and once Michael Schumacher hit the back of David Coulthard McLearn on lap 31, and with the 1996 world champion in 2nd and his team mate in 3rd with no real challangers, the race was set. For one it was nice to see Honda being a big part of Jordan. But after the great 1999 season when Jordan won another 2 races, BAR took control as Honda started to power 2 teams. This slowed down the R&D and after Honda admiting to that they will only power 1 team in 2003, Jordan were going to be the lossers.
Jordan and Ford where put together after a 10 year split. I really do hope that Jordan and Ford go well, as the Jaguars have been improving during the year. Ok, so its not a works deal. But in the same way that Lotus designed the Elise with no cash for the Traction Control, they made it, and just maybe Jordan will.
So lets welcome the boys in blue back, FORD. Make up your own mind which ones best.
