Arrows have recruited Reynard Motorsport duo Tony Osgood and Alan Smith, from the American-based Champ Car team.

Design engineer Osgood, who has worked at Arrows before, is a specialist in designing gearboxes, and will add his experience to a problem the Leafield-based team have has problems with this season.

Aerodynamicist Smith is a specialist in his field and will join the Arrows design team in a bid to improve the car for the 2001 season, when they will be powered by AMT engines.
