How to contact Eddie Jordan?

    Would anybody here have any idea how to contact Eddie Jordan?

    I'm based in the composite material research centre in the University of Limerick, and although we have plenty of contacts in the aerospace industry, we'd love to build some connections with Formula 1.

    If this request is inappropriate for this forum, I do apologise, but would appreciate any help.

    You might be better off getting in touch with Gary Anderson. He's doing some writing for Autosport so maybe contact their editor.

    Thanks for the advice, I might give that a shot.

    I wonder would anyone involved in the running of the F1 in Schools programme be able to point you in the right direction? I know they don't go down the composite materials route for that competition but they might have some contacts, or their contacts might have contacts, if you get my drift.

    That's actually my cousin listed on the contact page there. I asked him & they said they've no direct contact details but to give them a call op & they'll see what they can do :)

    Let me ask for you. I've dealt with him a lot over the years (hasn't been for a while) but ill see what details I can get. One of the ex engineers of Jordan I'm still in contact with.

    Thanks so much, that would be fantastic!

    Steve Owen, Builds and bakes his own tubs and a decent guy to talk to.

    Surely you would be better off talking to engineer then Eddie Jordan who is essentially a business man. A business man who hasn't ran an f1 team since 2003. The UK is littered with factories building race cars out of carbon fiber. Lola cars was owned by a Mayo man up until they went bust in 2012.

    I think in some respects, both an Engineer and a Business man would have their own merits for trying to build connections in F1. I know it's very unlikely that something would come directly from contact with Eddie Jordan, but I was just hoping that communication might point the composite materials centre in UL in the right direction, to extend our research and testing from aerospace and into F1.
