1993, 1994 1:43rd Jordan Two Car Box Set

Jordan two car box set with cars driven by many drivers in 1993 including Eddie Irvine in his formula one debut.  These models have never been displayed. 

1993 season started with two new drivers, Ivan Capelli and Brazilian rookie Rubens Barrichello.  Capelli left after two races and Barrichello saw five other drivers become team mates of his during the 1993 campaign.   This year signs of stability were beginning to show near the end of the season when Barrichello was joined by Eddie Irvine, a former Jordan driver in F3000.   Irvine finished sixth and secured a point on his debut Formula One race at Suzuka.   It was further memorable because Irvine unlapped himself against an F1 great, McLaren's Ayrton Senna, in order to overtake Damon Hill. After the race finished, an incensed Senna stormed into the Jordan garage and punched Irvine in the face.

 

Barrichello and Irvine returned for the 1994 season, as did the Hart engines, but Irvine had a bad start to the season, earning a three-race ban for reckless driving.   Barrichello earned the team their first top three finish in Japan at the Pacific Grand Prix, but was nearly killed during the following race in San Marino following a frightening qualifying crash. The team overcame these difficulties and returned to their initial form as they finished fifth in the Constructors' Championship again.   Barrichello earned Jordan's first pole position, and finished 6th in the Drivers' Championship with 19 points. This achievement stunned the Formula 1 big teams given the fact that a team with such a low budget with an engine designed and built by Darrell O'Brien/Hart Engineering achieved 5th in the constructor's championship with 28 points.

 

In early 2005, the team was sold to Midland Group, who competed for one final season as 'Jordan', before renaming the team as MF1 Racing for the 2006 season, before being sold later in 2006 to Dutch car manufacturer Spyker to become Spyker F1 for 2007, and then sold again to become Force India in 2008.
