Williams Martini Racing visit
of Formula 1 racing and have been for many years. I not only love to watch
the races, but I also like all the engineering and technical aspects that go
on in the background.
During a recent visit to the UK I was very lucky to be invited to visit the
Williams Martini Racing factory at Grove, Oxfordshire. Actually, a very good
friend of ours has recently started work there and he gave us the OK for the
visit. As such we were able to go into areas that are normally off limits to
the general public.
It was fascinating to watch the engineers in the chassis build area. Four
chassis were being worked on and were in various stages of build.
Unfortunately, we were not allowed to take any pictures, strict security
being in place. The one thing that really impressed me was the cleanliness,
not a hint of dirt or oil on the floor anywhere.
So, many thanks to Rodrigo for getting us in there and if JM or Lee ever
want to visit, well it's grovel time guys.
