My username comes from the fact I used to comment a lot on the old F1 forum on the original 606 as well as the Watford one (and cycling now and then). Growing up in the 90s I was a big fan of the Jordan team as the underdogs who actually could do it, and EJ himself was always a fun character. His recent podcasts with David Coulthard were great, revisiting some of the stories from his past in the sport. Although I still watch it, it does feel like F1 is a more stale place without characters like him and true privateer teams.

Exactly .

EJ was a real rags to riches story but also cared about the sport and gave many people a chance whilst having so such respect from others.
