In the ever evolving world of F1 – now a global juggernaut of speed and spotless PR – the loss of Eddie Jordan feels seismic. Not because he was still on the pitwall or publicly pulling strings in the paddock (although he was still absolutely doing that under the radar – note the Adrian Newey to Aston deal), but because voices like his are vanishing. Loud, honest, unpolished and unmistakably human, Eddie was the sport’s living antidote to the hypermanaged, sponsor sanitised travelling circus.
