Jordan opts for Mugen engines

TOKYO: The Jordan Formula 1 team has secured Mugen-Honda engines for the 1998 season to replace its Peugeot units.

Jordan was in a hotly contested bidding war with Arrows, which is now without an engine deal for next year.

But Ford may step in at Arrows, which is owned by Tom Walkinshaw, who runs the Holden factory team in Australia.
