Eddie, the man with a plan.

Jordan believes that, with change, the team will bounce back. "There is no doubt we have to re-structure Jordan Grand Prix," admitted Jordan said in an interview with The Sun. "Williams went through a bad time for two or three years, reorganised, and are now back at the top of the sport. We have to do the same and I am in the middle of it now."

Jordan said, "I think it is outstanding what David O'Leary is doing at Leeds. He has brought together a collection of brilliant young players, like Smith, Kewell, Mills, Ferdinand, who know exactly what they want and where they are going. There is an exciting atmosphere there and that is what I want for Jordan Grand Prix. I also admire what Martin O'Neill has done at Celtic and Alex Ferguson at Manchester United. People think there cannot be much of a connection between football and motor-racing. But I see it clearly and it is the direction I want to be going in."

Jordan has so far failed to give an explanation of why he sacked the highly rated Heinz-Harald Frentzen in July. "People thought I was mad sacking Frentzen. But I know what I am doing. I have won everything in this sport apart from the Formula One constructors' title.
"Heinz did not share my vision for the future," Jordan added. "He is a lovely, lovely guy. But at times it seemed he wanted to not only drive the car but design it as well. It caused problems with the engineers and was not good for the team.
"We have had race wins, pole positions, fastest laps and a world title is the one thing left. I believe we can do it."
