Mika Salo
The team retained all its 1994 backers including Mild Seven, BP, Fondmetal, Calbee, Club Angle and Zent. This was partly helped by the fact that new team driver Mika Salo brought $3 million with him to the team which resulted in their new sponsor Nokia. Ukyo Katayama, who had driven for the team since 1993, remained on the roster.
