In this episode of the Techne Connect, Ewan Baldry, Chief Engineer at Czinger Vehicles, talks through a career shaped by racing, engineering, and bold decisions.

Ewan shares how he moved from TVR to Williams F1, then built his own race car company. He explains how these experiences shaped his approach to design, leadership, and problem solving. He also discusses the challenges of running a small race car business through the 2008 recession, his move into LMP3 and LMP1 with Ginetta, and the path that led him from Yorkshire to Los Angeles.

The conversation covers his first months at Divergent, developing 3D printed structures, and helping shape the Czinger 21C into a record-breaking hypercar. Ewan also reflects on team building, working with universities, creating opportunities for young engineers, and the importance of tenacity in high-pressure environments.

He touches on practical advice for students entering motorsport, including volunteering, persistence, and building real experience outside the classroom.
