Hi, Geezer `ere,
I currently work for Mclaren Racing at present. Used to be one of the truck drivers for 8 years, that is, until i went onto insulin. Now working in the Inspection Dept., Checking anything from tooling jigs, to any parts of the car that are made and need inspecting, before being fitted. Very interesting work. Its certainly woken up my braincells, to get your head round some of the technical drawings, mind-boggling until you get used to looking at them.
I`ve met all the drivers since `97, and yes, they are all great characters, esp, Pedro De La Rosa, one of our test drivers. Picked him up several times from Heathrow, and since we test a lot in Spain, we actually converse in Spanish, Just to keep my hand in.
I consider myself very privilaged to have such a job.
Clive.
