The recently completed Renault F1 Team CFD centre structure at Enstone in Oxfordshire represents a unique application of ABM Bridge System’s Matiere CM4 Arch.

The Renault F1 Team’s new Computational Fluid Dynamics ("CFD") Facility is an environmentally–friendly, computerised ‘virtual’ wind tunnel – a world–class subterranean computing facility that will be used to perfect the aerodynamics of the 2009 season cars.
