From building a team in a Silverstone lock-up to a remarkable success in Formula One, world championships in rallying and sportscars, few have a tale to tell to match that of David Richards and Prodrive. What better time then than Sunday’s British Grand Prix as the company marks four decades of a journey for a man and team where racing is in the blood.
Richards formed Prodrive in 1984 with a complement of 14 people. It is now a racing and engineering group of more than 700 with Richards still at the helm. He will also be at Silverstone in his long-standing role as chair of Motorsport UK, British motorsport’s governing body.
