ARROWS A23


The 'Arrows A23' is a Formula One racing car, used by the Arrows team during the 2002 Formula One season.
Designed by Mike Coughlan, the A23 featured a Cosworth V10 engine rather than the Asiatech unit used in the previous year's A22. The car bore the livery of the team's major sponsor, Orange.
Driven by Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Enrique Bernoldi, the car scored only 2 championship points before financial problems forced the team to pull out of Formula One following the 2002 German Grand Prix.
Following the demise of Arrows, the A23 chassis and intellectual property rights to them were bought by Paul Stoddart, then the head of the Minardi team, as a potential replacement for his own team's PS03 chassis.[1]
The cars were tested against each other but Minardi did not race with them.
Four years later, in 2006, the debuting Super Aguri F1 team bought the A23 cars and ran them (with some modifications)[2] as the SA05 during the first half of the 2006 season.
