Williams / Jordan the rocky road

[darcym]

It can't be me who has noticed (and indeed been alarmed with) the almost mirror like situation of Willams and Jordan.

Granted Williams has been around for many more years and has MANY more years experience, and to be honest shows more interest in the racing than the "fun" of F1.

But take a look at it, 1999 Jordan where winning the odd race on merit, had top line drivers and people wanted to be there. It got into a Driver wrangle with HHF which damaged it badly, It gained an lost a works engine deal, (it even took on the engine suppliers national driver sato/heidfield to keein in favour) it lost its works engine deal, it bought customer ford/cosworth engines....now look at it.


Now "Williams vows team fightback" in the same way Jordan did.

I have little doubt in my mind in all seriousness that Williams will go the way of Jordan, but the parallels are quite similar.
