Eddie Jordan entered F1 with a small team, a customer engine and a neat little chassis. The Jordan 191 performed well from the outset, due in the main to the efforts of team technical director, Gary Anderson, who has continued to produce capable cars every year since.
The first car was scheduled to be called the 911 but German car company Porsche objected to the use of a number they called their own. Jordan protested about the cost of changing all his promotional material and as a result he got a Porsche 911 for all his troubles!
