So, There’s No One at the Factory?
Well, not quite. While the team members are away, there is still work to do. But it is only cosmetic.
Maintenance work will still take place at Brackley, designed to keep our home looking and running at its best for when our team members return.
Such work would not be possible in the middle of the season with all systems go.
Keeping our campus maintained to the highest possible standard will help serve our team members with the best possible working environment, allowing them to perform at their best.
This will give us the best possible chance of maximising and improving on track performance when the racing returns at the end of the month.
Departments not directly connected to the race team, such as Finance and Marketing, are permitted to remain open under Shutdown regulations, but the team does encourage those working in those areas to use the two-week break as well.
When Are We Back?
Teams will return to their bases and get ready for the second half of the 2024 season Monday 19 August.
It will be a case of straight down to business, with a Zandvoort-Monza double header awaiting in the first two weekends after the break.
