Arrows A20

Arrows A20

The Arrows A20 was the car with which the Arrows Formula One team used to compete in the 1999 Formula One season. It was driven by Pedro de la Rosa, a Spanish débutant, and Toranosuke Takagi, who moved from the obsolete Tyrrell team.

The team was short of funds with the lack of a major sponsor and the chassis was a development of the A19, which had not been too competitive itself. Engine builder Brian Hart supplied in-house engines, but it became clear that his small resources were not sufficient to compete in modern F1, and he left the team after an ownership dispute with Tom Walkinshaw. The Nigerian Prince Malik was also linked with buying the team, although this came to nothing.

The team ended up battling with Minardi at the back of the grid, although de la Rosa proved promising, scoring the team's only point of the season at his début in Australia. He would be retained for 2000, unlike Takagi, who was ditched in favour of Jos Verstappen.
