Jordan 192
Encyclopedia
The Jordan 192 was a Formula One
car designed by Gary Anderson
for the Jordan
team for the 1992 Formula One season
. The number 32 seat was taken by Stefano Modena
and the number 33 seat was taken by Maurício Gugelmin
. After a somewhat successful debut season the team unfortunately lost their supply of Ford engines, due to large debts. Instead Jordan signed a contract to run the Yamaha OX99 3.5L V12
which was supplied for free. One of the problems was that the team had begun work on the car basing it around a Ford V8 engine rather than a much larger V12 Yamaha. The team's main sponsor was Sasol
.
Compared to their successful debut season, 1992 was a total catastrophe for Jordan. The team struggled badly with reliability issues (in particular overheating), with Gugelmin retiring from seven of the first nine races and Modena failing to finish a race until the twelfth race of the season at Spa. Modena also failed to qualify four times in a car that was significantly slower than its predecessor. The team failed to score a point until the final race of the season in Australia
when Modena finished 6th. The team eventually finished 11th in the Constructors' Championship, with 1 point.
The 192 was replaced by the Hart
V10
-powered Jordan 193
