The modifications are said to include an entirely new aerodynamic package along with significant improvement to some internal components. The changes are so substantial that the team has given the chassis the designation, EJ11B.

Jordan launched an EJ10B half way through last season. The revisions were definitely improvements, but not enough to make a big difference to the team�s points total � they had slipped to a miserable 6th in the constructors championship by the season�s end.
Again in 2001, the team find themselves in 6th place and will be looking to the dual introduction of the EJ11B chassis and new driver, Jean Alesi to make the difference with Sauber and 4th place, the target.

The timing could not have been more unfortunate however. Due to the current compulsory ban on testing, the EJ11B will have to be taken to Hungary untested. As a result, the team are expected to take two standard EJ11s equipped with the existing high downforce package, along with two of the new EJ11Bs to the Hungaroring.
