Eddie Jordan, a former Formula 1 team owner, has passed away at the age of 76 due to an aggressive form of prostate cancer. He was battling the disease for the last year and underwent chemotherapy in February. Jordan's family described him as having "charisma, energy and Irish charm" and stated that his passing has left a "huge hole" in the lives of those who knew him. He is remembered for his time in the world of grand prix racing with his eponymous team, which eventually became Aston Martin after multiple name and ownership changes.
