The Jordan Mugen-Honda 198 which Briton Damon Hill used to bring the British squad their maiden Formula One win in the 1998 Belgian Grand Prix has been put on display at the famous Donington Grand Prix Collection.

"It's a great honour to have one of our cars included in Tom's collection at Donington and I'm delighted to be able to share our first race-winner with the public," said team boss Eddie Jordan. "Spa 1998 was an unbelievable experience and Damon's car has a special place in our hearts."

This will be the first time that a Jordan has featured among the world's largest collection of Grand Prix racing cars, belonging to Donington's owner Tom Wheatcroft.

Hill, World Champion in 1996 with the Williams team, took the win at the Spa circuit ahead of then teammate Ralf Schumacher, giving Jordan their first and so far only one-two victory.
