A special evening with Charlie Whiting

Formula Student Team

Catch a rare interview with this Formula One icon - enjoy great motorsport company, unrivalled networking and exceptional hospitality.

Immediately following the two pre-season 2018 F1 tests in Spain, join Charlie Whiting, FIA F1 Race Director and Head of the Formula OneTM Technical Department, who will answer your questions about the season ahead and years past.

Organised by the MIA, this unique evening is a rare chance to hear Charlie’s inspirational story spanning over 4 decades - from race/rally car preparer to enforcer of Formula OneTM rules with behind-the-scenes stories and insights to share.

This is your chance to gain a fascinating insight into the global phenomenon of Formula OneTM and where Charlie has been every step of the way. As the future of Formula OneTM is clearly ready to change, his views will be of special value.

This marvellous evening takes place on Thursday 15 March 2018 at 18.00 with a drinks reception for you and your guests to make new business contacts whilst enjoying the fabulous Williams Grand Prix Collection. A fine dining experience follows, after which Chris Aylett will interview Charlie and take questions from the audience.

Tickets include unlimited access to the exceptional Williams Grand Prix Collection, the largest private collection of Formula OneTM cars in the world, comprising more than 40 of the team's seminal race cars which chart the team's 30+ years of motor racing history, plus a three-course fine dining menu.
