1987 Arrows A10 Cheever

Ross Brawn joined the Arrows for the 1987 season, and designed a clean low-lined car. As BMW announced its intention to officially withdraw at the end of 1986, Arrows team boss Jackie Oliver brokered a deal with support from its primary sponsor, USF&G, to continue the use of the upright 4cyl BMW engines under the name of USF&G subsidiary Megatron. There was new driving pair, Derek Warwick and Eddie Cheever. Warwick scored 3 points for the year with a 5th in the British Grand Prix, and 6th in Hungary, while Cheever managed to score 8 points from a 4th in Belgium, 6th in Detroit and Portugal and another 4th in Mexico. Arrows ended the season seventh in the Constructors’ Championship.
