Stobart F1

I`m surprised theres been no mention of this yet?
Along with his rally team, Mr Stobart and Mr Tinkler are now getting involved in Formula 1.
We are covering the transport for the Brawn f1 european races.
Now i dont know if anyone from the upper echelons of Stobart reads or gets to hear about these forums, but can i respectfully suggest YOU PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THE GENERAL FLEET! ANOTHER YEAR WITHOUT A PAYRISE?

Correct me if i am wrong (and probablywill be) but i read on another forum (one thats heavily into stobart issues) and it said that stobart was merely supplying the drivers for the brawn fleet. i was led to believe the trucks were the GP teams own

barrichello and button are stobarts drivers :open_mouth: :laughing:

Stobart have ordered Megaspace mercs to pull Brawn trailers greg. As far as i know only two have arrived so far. My mate is driving an ex-honda team Daf 105ssc.

i also heard that they got mercs on order…is it true when the drivers are finished on that, they are going on to europe work

i was reading the commercial motor mag and saw the ones that honda had up for sale

Not sure how Stobart, Brawn F1 are working it, but most F1 teams have thier own trucks, but the drivers they use are mainly agency drivers, from specialist agencies who supply truck drivers for F1 teams. They normally get the truck to the circuit, clean it, park it and fly home. They then get flown back to get the trucks home or to the next circuit. When it’s quiet on the racing circuit they go and work elsewhere.
I suppose the Stobart drivers are going to work it a bit like this, but will be employed by the same company all the time.

i thought if jobs came up in the stobart group the are to be advertised in all depots

For the Fly Away races the teams equipment is flown out mostly with DHL and then the teams utilise containers at the circuit venues i believe.
