The secret wind tunnel test that found flaw in McLaren's radical F1 car
A secret Teddington wind tunnel shared with torpedo tests and a particle accelerator gave McLaren its first taste of porpoising four decades before the sport rediscovered it
This month the team sat down with Richard Attwood, winner of the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1970.
Regular listeners will know how entertaining Richard can be after Ed’s evening with him and David Piper. Nigel also commented afterwards that he has rarely known a racing driver with such incredible recall. For fans of the Porsche 917, Richard’s experiences of the car’s difficult early days and his Le Mans win with Hans Herrmann will be particularly interesting. The historians among you should enjoy this one.
