Yellow Fever! Inside the World of Jordan Grand Prix

[@PF9O]

90s and early 2000s F1 is just magic, the aura if off the charts.

[@cammy3norton]

Never knew this was out there and I cannot remember it being made and I was working there at the time. Pity they missed out a couple of important sections in the factory that being the fab shop, machine shop and the inspection dept. As mentioned else where the best car after the 191 was the 199 which was a special car in the fact of the gearbox layout.

[@ristomattikolsi5711]

Jordan was the coolest team ever👍

[@jacobmassey3897]

This was the most attractive shaped car they ever built imo. The shark nose gave it a fierce edgy appearance.

[@forever22758]

The EJ 199 is the best F1 for me ; forever Jordan Grand Prix !

[@SachaSommer]

Well there was no EJ 199.

[@andymb601]

It was the 199, not the EJ199

[@RobbertsTravelGuides]

My favorite team ever in F1, simply such a great envoirement!

[@danielsand6433]

[@shanem6400]

[@ClassicFormulaOne1]

[@john-kl3ux]

2000 car was really quick (especially over 1 lap), just incredibly unreliable

[@heavydude7474]

1999 there best season

[@beatlemike9]

A lot of Aussies in the team!

[@njclsx4252]

Jordan reminds me of a small soccer club with a lot of young talent that leaves constantly without a growth plan while not being able to retain and pay its talent well In saying that not everyone that left did well elsewhere, gasscone and micheals were caca at Williams and Toyota just to name a few

[@jamiecloughgaming25387]

Unfortunately, it was down hill from here.

[@TroystonB]

yep but that was an extremely quick car. reliability was atrocious

[@jamiecloughgaming25387]

@@TroystonB Yes they should have finished 3rd in the 2000 constructors cup, they had the 3rd quickest car in general, that season but, because the car was so unreliable 6th was where they ended up. Mind you the drivers also made mistakes Frentzen crashed out of a sure 2nd place at Monaco without that the team may have finished 4th in the constructors with 23 points. Trulli also collided with Button at Spa when he was running in the top 3, and both cars dramatically crashed out at Monza.

big time epic fail

[@marrybichaelmore3372]

28:15 Woah Heinz don't go any further up!

[@_Ben4810]

Mike Gascoyne....😆😆🤡😆 Watched him at the Goodwood FOS one year foolishly attempt to convince everyone he could drive the Jordan 199 F1 car, & promptly drove it into a tree after getting a tank-slapper off the start line....🤣

[@MisterMister5893]

Eddie driving a Honda prelude to the track. We’re they powered by Honda?

[@jordanblair4077]

Mugen-Honda

[@donathandorko]

My favourite F1 team ever. F1 just got too big for them.

[@stonedrui7112]

Indeed. Jordan himself showed that James Hunt was right - you can win a million championships, races, cups, medals - but what's the point if you are not having fun? He had (and has) a personality, and this is why his team had a personality. You do not need to win everything - the story of a bright midfielder is sometimes way more interesting, challenging and fun. And I agree - F1 just became too big and too expensive for Eddie. These new engines, tobacco companies, hundreds of millions of dollars - it was not the F1 he had entered any more. Eddie had (and has :) ) a mindset of a ship captain. He is not the one to be a guest in his own team - either he is to control and manage and be responsible for everything, or he just quits. This is why, for me, he is the winner no matter what. P.S. "Ship captain mindset" is actually more than just a metaphor - he does own a yacht)

[@donathandorko]

@@stonedrui7112 This is true, and might I also say that EJ was the man when it came to bringing in drivers to the sport. Schumacher, Irvine, Barrichello, Frentzen, Ralf etc. He was the dude that saw the talent. there was a guy that worked at Jordan in 1995, Irvine and Barrichello were probably the most evenly matched teammates in the history of F1, and he said Rubens was the ultimate professional, strict diet, exercise etc. Eddie was the opposite. Just wanted to fuck about and have fun. Yet, in the car it was neck and neck between them. You cannot have this dynamic in a team other than Jordan.

[@westboundbadger]

The finance became difficult as a large deal fell through and stopped the second factory being built,...EJ sold up and its gone though various owners since,...Aston Martin is its latest incarnation and only just moved from the old Jordan factory to a new state of the art building next door !

[@darapeyton4805]

The Vodafone deal was always a funny one for me. Not sure how he thought it was a done deal without it being signed.

[@NOJAWJIMMY]

@FrancisHiggins This yoke is full of cult classics from the Jordanian Screamer

[@arthurteo5795]

F1 those days was so much better: more teams, more power train variety, beautiful sounds. F1 today is so boring and sterile: so few teams, horribly sounding engines, power train monopolies, barriers to entry.
