Description
The Arrows A22 was the car with which the Arrows team competed in the 2001 Formula One season.
It was driven by Jos Verstappen, who was in his second year with the team, and Enrique Bernoldi, a rookie who brought sponsorship from Red Bull.
The A22 was a development of the previous year’s highly promising A21.
However, the project was hamstrung by changing engine suppliers for the second year in a row.
Out went the Renault-based Supertecs, and in came the Asiatech engines, a private development of the unsuccessful Peugeot engine which the Prost team had used in 2000.
The engine was less powerful than its predecessor, and also had reliability problems.
The team made the decision to equip the car with a very small fuel tank. This resulted in several high-profile, low-fuel strategies as the drivers, particularly Verstappen, used their light cars to good effect in the opening stages of many of the Grands Prix.
