Arrows Grand Prix International

Consumer Discretionary

Arrows Grand Prix International was a British Formula One team that raced from 1978 to 2002 and was known as Footwork from 1991 to 1996. It was founded at Milton Keynes in November 1977 by the Italian businessman Franco Ambrosio, Alan Rees, the former racing driver Jackie Oliver, Dave Wass and Tony Southgate, who left the Shadow team, and the name came from the initials of their surnames. The team reached its first grid at the 1978 Brazilian Grand Prix within three months of forming. Japanese businessman Wataru Ohashi invested in 1990, and in 1996 Tom Walkinshaw bought 51 percent of the team, moved it to Leafield and signed the reigning world champion Damon Hill for 1997. In 1998 it began building its own engines. The article dates the team's activity to 2002.
