Tuesday, April 30 Jordan has high hopes for team's future Reuters LONDON -- Team owner Eddie Jordan is still dreaming of winning the Formula One world title some day even though his cars have yet to score a point this year. "This past week has been tough," the Irish entrepreneur told Jordan employees on his return from the Spanish Grand Prix, fifth race of the season, where neither Italian Giancarlo Fisichella nor Japan's Takuma Sato finished. "But now we must move on and work harder than ever ... I am more passionate than ever about Jordan achieving success," the team website quoted him as saying. "I want to win a world championship. I know that seems a far off goal at present but don't let's forget that two years ago Jordan was winning races and McLaren were lapping the competition. "So things change quickly in our business." Henri Durand, the team's new director of development and design, said Jordan's current performance was unacceptable but there were a number of developments in the pipeline. "Our car is not weak in any specific area so we are working on a number of fronts to develop it," he said. The team laid off 15 percent of their staff last week. |
