Revealing the full scale of Racing Point's expansion

Having spent years making a little go a long way, Racing Point has ambitious expansion plans under its new ownership, which were revealed exclusively to F1 Racing and JAMES ROBERTS

Racing Point plans to move to the front of the Formula 1 grid through fresh investment that will include an entirely new factory. The team will file its application for planning permission this month and hopes to start building later this year, aiming for completion in time for the 2021 F1 season.

"This is a new chapter, the dawn of a new era, and there is huge energy from the shareholders to invest and help the team become a regular podium contender in the future," says Racing Point team principal Otmar Szafnauer.
