The Arrows A20 was the car with which the Arrows Formula One team competed in the 1999 Formula One World Championship.
It was driven by former Jordan test driver Pedro de la Rosa, a Spanish débutant who brought considerable sponsorship from Repsol,[3] and Japan's Toranosuke Takagi, who moved from the defunct Tyrrell team. Mika Salo was due to stay with the team after a promising 1998 but was dropped just a week before the opening race.[4]
