Richard Robarts is a retired British racing driver who competed in Formula 1 during the 1974 season. He made three starts for Brabham, the team that would go on to establish itself as one of the sport's winning outfits through its later decades. Robarts did not score championship points during his brief spell in the premier category.[1]
His limited record offers scattered evidence of competitive moments against stronger drivers. Across his three races he finished on average in sixteenth place, and in isolated instances he outqualified or outpaced drivers including Jochen Mass, a professional of considerably higher standing, along with Henri Pescarolo and François Migault, both established competitors in international single-seater racing. These were individual results rather than patterns of sustained competitiveness, and they came against a field that included the likes of Reutemann, the strongest driver Brabham would field across its roster. Robarts' Formula 1 campaign ended after 1974 and he did not return to racing.[2]
