In the lead-up to today’s big race, Sky F1 commentator Martin Brundle is paying tribute to his great mate Eddie Jordan, who passed away after a long battle with cancer.

He hit Formula 1 in 1991 as a team owner (with the team named after him), and had a huge impact straight away – through the mechanics, engineers, and drivers he mentored.

He gave Michael Schumacher his F1 debut in Spa, before the now-legend of the sport moved on to Benetton.

Brundle spoke about the time he drove for Jordan in 1996 and absolutely destroyed the car, only for Eddie to say he only cared about his welfare.

Jordan sold the final share of his team in 2005 and then spent the rest of his life as a family man, entrepreneur, and musician.

He died 10 days shy of his 77th birthday.

“He affected so many people with his joy of life,” former world champion Damon Hill said of his countryman.

“Thank you, with all of our hearts, Eddie – you were a rock star in every sense.”
