Stewart > Jaguar > Red Bull
editI've obviously got different views to everyone else on this one.
I don't think it's necessary to trace the history of all of a team's descendants in the article for that team. I think it's entirely adequate to mention who bought the team - part of the charm of an encyclopedia is following those links through to the next stage. In this case there's not a great deal of similarity in the 'personality' or the histories of the three teams. Not only did they have different owners, different sponsors (HSBC excepted), different management and technical teams (several of each in the case of Jag :-)) and different drivers (Herbert excepted, and he didn't last long), but they have had very different levels of success in F1.
I suppose I can live with the brief mention that has been put in again as a point of interest - at least it's not a potted history of Jaguar and Red Bull, unlike the elements I've previously deleted. Am I the only one who feels like this? 4u1e 7 April 2006
Gary Anderson
editWhy is the name Gary Anderson linking to some American football player and even when you click disambiguation there is no mention of the former car designer.

1999 bolded
editWhy is it that the entry for 1999 is bolded whereas 1998 and 1997 are not? What do we want for the standard style? -- Guroadrunner 04:31, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Diniz fixed it. Rock on, Diniz. Guroadrunner 11:32, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Ownership
editIt says here and on Jackie Stewart's own page that he was the owner of the Stewart Grand Prix team, and this clashes with my memories of the era. The team was unquestionable owned by Paul Stewart who brought it up form the Formula 3000 ranks, but did Jackie actually have an ownership stake in the team? He didn't when it was a Formula 3000 team. My memory recalls that Jackie was a figurehead for the team and facilitator to bringing in Ford's involvement. Can anyone confirm or deny? --Falcadore (talk) 23:22, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Sentence does not make sense
editThe following sentence:
The team's first season had not been hugely successful with a sole win for Stewart at Snetterton.
originally read
The team's first season had not been hugely with a sole win for Stewart at Snetterton.
I added an extra word to make sense, but am not sure if it is right. Op47 (talk) 17:52, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
- Looks like a good change. Thanks. DH85868993 (talk) 01:23, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Was there a connection between Stewart and Brabham in Milton Keynes?
editDear wikipedians, a historic question to those who may know: In 1990, both Brabham (Motor Racing Developments) and Paul Stewart Racing moved to Milton Keynes - was there any infrastructural connection between those teams at that time, or did they move independently into totally separate premises? 92.195.9.254 (talk) 23:51, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
