The Jordan 195 was the Formula One car which the Jordan team competed in the 1995 Formula One World Championship.
Overview
Design
The 195 featured a distinctive low nose and highly sculpted sidepods, lending it a very smooth appearance.
Engine
When McLaren had a long term deal to supply engines from Mercedes in previous year, Jordan decided to switch from Hart into Peugeot engines. The engine itself were underpowered and unreliable compared with other competitors.
Racing history
It achieved Jordan's then best-ever result at the Canadian Grand Prix, when Barrichello and Irvine finished second and third respectively behind Jean Alesi's Ferrari. However, the car was not consistently competitive and suffered numerous reliability problems, and the team ended up in sixth place in the Constructors' Championship.
Livery
The 195 ran with a mixture of white, red, blue and yellow livery until the San Marino Grand Prix when most of the blue livery were replaced with aqua. Total served as the team's main sponsor for the season. Like other teams sponsored by Marlboro, the logo was replaced with either a barcode or chevron at Grands Prix where cigarette advertising was not allowed.
Aftermath
In 1996, WRC champion Colin McRae test drove the 195 in 196 livery at the Silverstone Circuit.
