Today's news makes Horner the youngest team boss in F1, at 31 years and 52 days, and comes just eight years after he founded Arden to compete in the International F3000 championship.

In its formative years, Horner was the team's sole driver, and scored his only championship point in the final race of that season, at Jerez in Spain.

After a second, pointless, season behind the wheel in 1998, Horner concentrated on running the team taking on Russian Viktor Maslov and Belgian Marc Goossens to race his two cars.

Goossens was replaced by Darren Manning for 2000, and the British driver scored 19 points for the team over the next two years.

In 2002 the team took on a new direction, hiring experienced driver Tomas Enge alongside Swedish rookie Bjorn Wirdheim. Enge won the title, but was later lost it after drug traces were found in a urine sample taken after the Hungarian round of the championship. But Arden won the team's title, by 11 points, and Wirdheim scored his first win in the final race at Monza.

Wirdheim went on to bring Arden it's first driver's championship in 2003, combined with the second team's title, and last season's pairing of Tonio Liuzzi and Robert Doornbos added another pair of trophies to the cabinet.
