In Barrichello's third race, the European Grand Prix, he started from 12th place in very wet conditions but was fourth by the end of the first lap.
He ran as high as second and was running third, having passed the Williams of Damon Hill and Alain Prost, before encountering a fuel pressure problem.
His Jordan's reliability in 1993 was poor, and he finished few races.
Barrichello regularly outpaced his more experienced teammates, Ivan Capelli and Thierry Boutsen.
In the French Grand Prix, he almost scored his first Grand Prix point (and the team's first that year) but Michael Andretti passed him on the final lap for the sixth and final points-scoring position.
His only points finish of the season came at the Japanese Grand Prix with fifth place, ahead of his new teammate Eddie Irvine.
These 2 points put him in 18th place in the standings.

1994 started with a fourth place in Brazil and a third place at Aida, which was his first podium position.
These results put Barrichello in second place in the drivers' ranking, behind Michael Schumacher, who had won the two races.
However, at the San Marino Grand Prix, he suffered a violent crash during Friday practice, hitting the wall at the Variante Bassa and flipping the car.
The accident knocked him unconscious and threatened his life, with his tongue blocking his airway.
Barrichello credited the on-track work of Sid Watkins for saving his life.
The race weekend saw a succession of serious accidents, of which two were fatal: Roland Ratzenberger died during Saturday's qualifying session when he crashed his Simtek at the curva Villeneuve, while on Sunday, during the race, Barrichello's mentor Ayrton Senna crashed his Williams at Tamburello and also died.
Barrichello was deeply affected by the deaths.

Later in the season, he took pole position at the Belgian Grand Prix, and led some laps at Estoril.
His pole position at Spa-Francorchamps set the record for the youngest driver to secure pole position at that time.
He concluded the season with fourth place in Adelaide.
He finished the season sixth overall in the Drivers' Championship with 19 points, outscoring Irvine, who scored six.

During the 1995 season, Barrichello scored a second-place finish in Montreal, but the Jordan cars were less reliable than in 1994 mostly because Jordan took over the works Peugeot engine contract from the McLaren team.
In three races he lost seven points on the final lap – a high-speed collision with Mark Blundell at Silverstone, and mechanical failures at Barcelona and in Hungary.
Barrichello finished the season in 11th with 11 points, one ahead of Irvine.

There were high hopes for 1996.
The Benson & Hedges cigarette brand brought an infusion of sponsorship to the team.
Barrichello was amongst the frontrunners in Brazil, the second race of the season, before spinning off after his brakes overheated.
However, as the season progressed, Jordan became less competitive.
Barrichello's relationship with team owner Eddie Jordan soured during 1996, and at the end of the year, after being linked to strong teams, including Benetton (the seat was later filled by Gerhard Berger due to the Austrian bringing in more sponsorship), he left for the newly formed Stewart Grand Prix.
His final season at Jordan resulted in 14 points.
