2001 season
2001 was a season of consolidation for Jaguar after a disastrous start in 2000 with only four points in the constructors' championship. The car was more conservative and reliable, and the team's success was slightly better, if not a quantum leap. There were only four finishings in the points, with Eddie Irvine's third place in Monaco marking Jaguar's first podium. In the constructors' championship they reached eighth place with nine points.
