The Stewart Grand Prix team was formed in 1996 by three times Formula 1 champion Sir Jackie Stewart and his son, Paul Stewart. It was set up as a Ford Works supported team but competed in Formula 1 for only three seasons, during which time the team achieved one win and one pole position.
At the end of 1999 Ford bought the team outright and it was renamed Jaguar Racing. In 2004, Jaguar Racing was sold to energy drinks company Red Bull and now competes as Red Bull Racing.
