THE home of Formula 1, Silverstone motor racing circuit, will get its support vehicles supplied by JCT600 Vehicle Leasing Solutions.

JCT600 Vehicle Leasing Solutions has won the tender to supply the 200 vehicle fleet of track, safety, security and catering vehicles.

All vehicles will sport both Silverstone and JCT600 branding. The deal is for four years.

So far, JCT600 has supplied 38 vehicles comprising 21 Mitsubishi L200 pick-up trucks; two refrigerated Renault vans; one Ford Focus; and 15 Renault Master vans and Renault Kangoo Maxi vans.

Lee Thomas, procurement and contracts manager for Silverstone Circuits, said:

“We were extremely impressed by the amount of hard work and time JCT600 put into helping us to choose the best vehicles for our needs. The on-site demo day they organised enabled personnel from our various departments to try out a number of makes and models for themselves, and the company has continued to provide a high level of personal service.”

Paul Walters, managing director for JCT600 VLS, added:

“With JCT600’s racing heritage, we are, of course, proud to partner with Silverstone Circuits and for their on-site vehicles to bear our livery. I understand we were chosen because of our ability to provide a truly bespoke package, ensuring that every vehicle is suitable for its particular purpose.

“We were also able to work within Silverstone’s time frame, with the vehicles ordered, liveried and delivered within just three months.”
