Jaguar R1

This car was part of a display at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 2000 covering 50 years of Grand Prix racing.
It's the 2000 Jaguar R1 with a 3 litre V10 Ford Cosworth engine. Ford had taken over the Stewart Racing Team after the 1999 season and the resulting cars were badged as Jaguars, Johnny Herbert being retained as one of the drivers and teamed with Eddie Irvine. The car didn't have much success, but the team persevered for the next four seasons without any great improvement and were taken over by the Red Bull Racing Team in 2005.
