The Silverstone Sports Engineering Story
How it began
The Hub was created by the Aerodynamics and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) experts TotalSim. Through their extensive experience working with Team GB and other elite athletes, they discovered a need for affordable bespoke sports engineering tools.
They set about designing a bespoke sports wind tunnel with Olympic cyclist Chris Boardman and Sports Aero Solutions.
This snowballed into the creation of the hub, where engineers and sports scientists can help create a unique environment for innovation in the perfect location at Silverstone Park.
