Eddie Jordan was nicknamed "Flash" as a boy, and the Irishman brought a blast of 'rock 'n' roll' to Formula One in the 1990s as a flamboyant team owner shaking up the motor racing establishment. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/03/21/more-sports/eddie-jordan-rock-n-roll-extrovert/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #moresports #eddiejordan #formulaone #bernieecclestone #michaelschumacher
@HailsandAles The last time I saw "RIP Eddie", I wept...
I know who Eddie Jordan is, and I know he'll be missed. RIP Eddie.
Eddie Jordan, the charismatic Irish entrepreneur whose Formula One team gave Michael Schumacher his grand prix debut in 1991, has died of prostate cancer at age 76. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/03/20/more-sports/eddie-jordan-dies/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #moresports #eddiejordan #formulaone #obituary
Remembering Eddie Jordan: Legendary F1 Team Owner And All-Round Entertainer
If I could own just one F1 car, it would definitely be the EJ-11. What a beauty. Eddie made a great choice by sticking with the yellow livery. If I remember correctly, the Jordans were the most recognised car at the time behind the Ferraris.
@ellieraejaye I saved up to buy a Damon Hill Jordan cap in 1999, and I was gutted when it was too big for my head. Still one of the nicest F1 caps I’ve ever owned though.
First thing I ever remember doing on the Internet was searching for photos of F1 cars and printing out a picture of HH Frenzen in his Jordan for my bedroom wall. I’d gone to the library to do it specially.
Farewell Eddie 
Here’s the one of the greatest underdogs in F1. RIP Eddie and thanks for making a fan out of me! #eddiejordan #f1
I’ll be wearing these bad boys through the rest of the week I think as a little tribute.
RIP Eddie Jordan
Jordan was the first F1 team I properly supported after following Damon Hill there, and I stuck with them until the end. Against all the odds he did pretty well really, ‘99 was an amazing season when Heinz-Harald Frentzen had a decent shout at the title. And who could forget Spa ‘98?
