TESTIMONALS

We would like to thank you once again for the contribution that you have made towards our success in the 2018 Formula One season, allowing us to win the fifth World Championship title in a row.

This year’s Championship has been both challenging and exciting at the same time and we could not have achieved these results with out your hard work, dedication and support.

— A Cowell, Managing Director, Mercedes AMG HPP

It quickly became apparent that the team at HV Wooding were capable of really adding to the performance of the components we were developing.

They were not content with just providing what was initially required, they wanted to optimise both price and performance

— Glen Kirby, CERN

We are very pleased with the outcome of this new assembly, and the quality of the item you have delivered is excellent. It would seem the effort put into modelling it has really paid off. What I was hoping to achieve was a reduction in component count, weight and cost and we have achieved all of these. Consolidation of 5 main parts and their related fasteners into this one item. Weight reduction from 13kg down to 6kg! The cost reduction is also significant!

— Ring Automotive Limited
