Former F1 team boss Eddie Jordan says he was diagnosed with a “quite aggressive” form of cancer earlier this year.

The 76-year-old revealed he suffered with bladder and prostate cancer which spread to his spine and pelvis.

Jordan, whose team competed between 1991 and 2005, is the current manager of design legend Adrian Newey.

Speaking on his Formula For Success podcast alongside co-host David Coulthard, Jordan urged listeners to “go and get tested, because in life, you’ve got chances”.

“We’ve kind of alluded to it over the shows, way back in March and April, I was diagnosed with bladder and prostate cancer, and then it spread into the spine and the pelvis, so it was quite aggressive,” said Jordan.
