Gordon Murray moved to the UK to join the Brabham Formula One Team as Technical Director winning two world championships (1981 and 1983) and then moved to McLaren International as Technical Director in 1988 where the team won three consecutive championships - 1988, 1989 and 1990. Having accrued 50 Grand Prix wins in Formula One, he left the racing arena to establish a new company for the Group – McLaren Cars Limited.

The Company’s first project was the F1 Road Car. A racing version won two world sports car championships and the Le Mans 24-hour race in 1995 and he then completed several other successful projects at McLaren Cars culminating with the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren programme.

He is now heading up Gordon Murray Design which specialises in innovative automative technologies.
