This time-lapse video shows my grandson Matt at work as part of the team building the new Williams F1 car. If you don't want to watch it all, fast-forward to the end to see the completed car on the test track.

[QUOTE=noobvious;1831733That's real racing...unlike the left-turn only variety that is so popular on this side of the pond. You must be proud![/QUOTE]
Certainly am. He's waiting to find out if he's going to Melbourne, Australia, for the first F1 race of the season.
I'll be at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone later on this year for the full three days watching the practice sessions, and then the race proper.
The atmosphere and noise are unbelievable - far better than watching it on TV.
The Williams drivers are Pastor Maldanodo and Ayrton Senna's nephew Bruno Senna, but I'll be cheering the two British drivers, Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton, who both drive for Mclaren.
Turning left with a car the weights 3 time more than a F1 and less than 1/2 the tire size is a challenge. Also keep in mind your friends around you have no problem showing you what bumpers are made for.
