ARROWS GRAND PRIX INTERNATIONAL

July 7th 2014

Losing the Mugen-Honda engine could have been a body blow to Arrows (nee Footwork, nee Arrows!), but instead lack Oliver allied himself with Ford by taking over the old Series VII and VIII supply used by McLaren in 1993 and revamped his team round a couple of hungry young chargers.

Alan Jenkins has come up with one of the most attractive cars with his small, neat FA15, and even after the regulation change for Barcelona it has proved quick and agile at all types of circuit. Its Achilles Heel has been the transmission, which has been weak since it first tested.
