Renault Factory 2011
Mark flew to France for the day today (Friday, Sep 16) to see the guys and girls of Renault Sport F1 at their headquarters in Viry Chatillon, just south of Paris.
The team from Renault Sport (including Red Bull Racing’s Renault engineers) that travel to F1 races is only a small percentage of the many staff that work at the Viry Chatillon HQ each day. Having last visited in 2009, Mark was keen to take the opportunity to visit this year while his busy travel schedule allowed.
The Red Bull Racing driver stopped by to say hello to those who work behind the scenes, have lunch, and look through the factory that makes the engines for his RB7. “It was great to see everyone at Renault Sport F1 today”, said Mark. “I enjoyed being shown through all the different departments; marketing, engineering etc and especially seeing the engines on the dyno. It was a really nice surprise to find an Aussie flag flying for me too!”
