Draco Drivers guests at the Renault F1 Team headquarters in Enstone

The two Draco drivers, Bertrand Baguette and Marco Barba, after the weekend of the Silverstone circuit, have extended their presence in England, invited by Renault, together with the other drivers of the World Series championship, for a training of 2 days, Monday 6 and Tuesday 7 July, in the seat of the Renault Team Formula 1 to Enstone.

The "headquarters" of Renault in Enstone is located in the suburbs of Oxford, in the open country, and there aren't other buildings before to find the entrance gate. The modern white building represents the daily work of approximately 650 employees.

The first day was introduced by Director of RTD Remi Deconinck and Rob Bell, Renault F1 designer, dedicated to visiting the factory, especially the technical center, the new digital center of fluid mechanics and the center of training for drivers, where they were able to attend a training session with the Renault preparer.

The second day Draco Drivers met Pat Symonds, Technical Director Renault F1, who explained to them what are the processes driving the single seater, with a final section on public relations.

This is a beautiful and important initiative of Renault, increasingly close to its drivers, growing them through the various categories in order to give them the expertise to become true professionals.

The two Draco Drivers were very pleased with the visit and they were very honored for this opportunity given to few people.
