McLaren is repurposing its old Woking F1 factory into a new composites facility as part of its larger infrastructure upgrade. Details here:
used before its move the gigantic MTC facility two miles from central Woking in 2003 and it is set to open for production later this summer.
By moving the composites department to a dedicated solo facility away from the MTC, it is understood McLaren will make significant savings on the time taken to produce parts for its F1 machines, as well as the initial build process for new cars. The warehouse holding the additional heritage machinery, pictured above, is also used to store spare kit – such as F1 weekend garage and pit wall parts – for McLaren’s race team.
“We’ve done a huge amount of investment in various infrastructure projects across Formula 1 and that’s necessitated a ‘holiday’ in the warehouse longer than we originally wanted.
