Will Jordan score this weekend?

[Tony]

Well that a cracking season Jordan are having this year, NOT. So after showing so well at Monaco only so have neither driver finish at all, can Jordan improve this weekend in Canada? Their cars appear to run well on the Canadian track, and traditionally they've certainly had the most consistent results here in previous years. They scored their first F1 points on this track in their debut year. In '95 both drivers finished on the podium, with Barichello in second and Irvine third. In '96 Brundle finished sixth, and in '97 Fisichella finished second, and as far as I can remember came pretty close to winning it altogether.

So my question is will they get lucky this weekend, will this tradition continue?

Lets hope so! :)

The only thing going against Jordan is that they simply have problems with reliability. If they were to have this sorted out for the remainder of the season, I think they'd give the likes of Williams a run for their money. Also they would have secured a second place in Monaco only for Frentzen's drastic driver error http://www.eforecourt.com/UBB/sad.gif. Lets hope they qualify as well as in Monaco, then go on to finish the race too. :)

I think that Jordan have a good chance on sunday. It would be nice to see the 2 Jordans up in the top six to bump them up the constructors table.

Go on the Jordan!!

I certainly hope they do, cause I've just backed both to finish in the points at 10/1 with Paddy Powers (https://www.paddypower.com) .

One feckin point is all they could achieve http://www.eforecourt.com/UBB/disgust.gif. I don’t think they’ll be scoring to many points this season, let alone podium places. I’d say EJ is fairly ****ed off with the lacklustre showing. It’s now time for heads to roll at the Jordan camp http://www.eforecourt.com/UBB/dizzy.gif.

It looks like Jordan finally have their gearbox sorted out this time around. But it just seems like one thing after another. This time it was Frentzen’s brakes which caused his untimely retirement from the Canadian GP http://www.eforecourt.com/UBB/disgust.gif. At this stage there can’t be too much left to go wrong with the car, and if they can get their act together and get the car running reliably, I’m sure they’ll have a good battle with Williams and Benetton for that cherished third spot.

I totally agree. I have to say though, at least they managed to score a point, even if it was just 1 point at that. Lets hope they can improve on that results in the French GP.

<FONT face="Comic Sans MS">I think in all fairness if Jordan get the lump of lard that they are driving this year together and operating they will take third place no hassle. The retirement of Frenzten was a sad point for me again this weekend but even worse was the way Trulli was passed by Verstappen in an Arrows .. man that was demeaning .. like Arrows are shlte at the best of times .... I wonder who will offer Verstappen a drive next year he showed his experience this Sunday as Murray said normally he would have taken out four cars trying to overtake Trulli ... Do anyone see any future for Jordan beyond this year ??</FONT f>

Well junior there’s been worse results by Jordan and other teams in the past. Look how badly Williams did last year, now they must be running about third this year and have a great package with the BMW engine and all. I just hope that Jordan don’t loose out on their major sponsors like B&H, that would be a real kick in the goolies for them. EJ will have to get the finger out and put some pressure on his technical team to get that their cars reliable and finishing races in the points again.
