Visit to McLaren

Filmed a story at McLaren in Woking today.
Sadly no piccies as a VERY strict "no photographs" policy in place.
Plenty of old/new Formula 1 cars around as well as THREE F1's and at least 40 SLR's in various stages of construction.
I don't think anyone would recognise the areas as a workshop, much more akin to an operating theatre. Interesting day though.

Nice one Simon, That's one part of our workplace I hate but understand. No pics! What to tell grand kids with no photos eh?
Mind you if they were F1 then they are a bit paranoid.
Was working in the Isle of man with Burt Reynolds last month and he was OK but his assistant wasn't! strict with phones too.

Did you really want a picture of Burt Reynolds? They were probably worried you'd get one without his wig on
