How do I feel about Jaguar Racing? Guess.
Irvine was entertaining and I suppose he was my favorite driver from that effort. But what I miss most is Jaguar in the prototype category at Le Mans. IMO, that is where Jaguar belongs.

The Jaguar Racing F1 Team was bought by Red Bull as a going concern by Red Bull. They've done pretty well for themselves with a new masthead.
The Jaguar R6 became the Red Bull RB1 upon the sale.The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

Wet conditions. Portuguese Autosport brought something to the table... the WRC2 crews are using a WRC spec tyre that is harder than the spec Meeke and other CPR runners are using.
