Jordan is the name of a
formula 1 motor
racing team owned and run by
Irishman
Eddie Jordan.
He used to work in the Bank of Ireland,
but gave up his job to follow his dream
of creating a formula-1 motor racing team.
He sold off all of his posession in Ireland and with his wife lived in a caravan in Monte-Carlo
for a couple of years drumming up support
and finances for his formula-1 team.
Not a newcomer to the sport of motor racing
he has been involved for many years
in different formula.
He was the first
person to give the legendary
Ayrton Senna a drive in one of the
junior formula a long time ago.
He was the first person to give Micheal Schumacher
a drive in formula-1 but the German
wunderkind was stolen by Benneton that year.
Undeterred Jordan gave Micheal's brother Ralph
a drive a few years later.
Before he moved off out of Ireland
he had a house which had a hanging basket chair
and I sat in it when I was about five years
old. I still remeber it.
