[Saba Sports News]Williams Racing has secured the services of American
driver Logan Sargeant for another year, as he recently renewed his contract
with the team. Surprisingly, Logan comes from a wealthy background. It is
reported that the Sargeant family has significant wealth and influence in the
United States. Logan’s father and uncle are owners of IOTC (Global Oil
Management Company) and Sargeant Marine, which are involved in the fuel sales
business, including supplying fuel to the US military and coalition forces in
Iraq. The Sargeant family has reportedly received substantial payments from the
Pentagon for their contract in Iraq, amounting to nearly $3 billion.
Additionally, Sargeant Marine controls the world’s largest fleet of asphalt,
oil, and natural gas carriers. Logan’s father also owns Sargeant Trading. Apart
from their business ventures, the Sargeant family is actively engaged in
political affairs and sponsors various American politicians. They have sponsored
New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, have close ties with Lev Parnas (a confidant
of Donald Trump’s staff), and have sponsored Republican campaigns by providing
planes for campaigning purposes in different states.
