As our engineering insights series returns, we are joined by Mike Law, a greatly experienced vehicle dynamicist working at the highest levels of motorsport..

Sit with us over the next few episodes as we explore vehicle dynamics and dive in to some key concepts in developing performance in racing cars.
In the first episode, we set the scene by exploring the five key factors influencing performance:
- The Powertrain
- Weight
- The Driver
- Tyres
- Aerodynamics
Mike has a book published called "Ace Thinking" which takes the skills and experience he's gained developing race cars to create a framework for approaching tasks, engineering and otherwise. You can find this on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ACE-Thinking-Lessons-Engineering-Ultimate/dp/B0BDXFMGPR
All proceeds from the book go towards the Small Piece Trust.
