Simon Lacey (born 9 June 1971)[1] is a British engineer and head of aerodynamics at the McLaren Formula One team.
Career
Simon Lacey graduated from Cambridge University with a degree in engineering and finished top of his class. In 1995, he held the position of aerodynamicist at the British Williams F1 Team. He remained with Williams until 1998 then joined the new British American Racing team.
After the success at Williams, the following years were more complicated. Indeed, BAR suffered from numerous teething problems and it was necessary to wait until the 2004 season to obtain the first satisfactory results: British American Racing finished in 2nd place in the constructor's championship. In 2006, under the name Honda Racing F1 Team, the team achieved its first success during the Hungarian Grand Prix, thanks to Jenson Button.
Simon Lacey left Honda in November 2006 for McLaren where he held the position of head of aerodynamics.[2][3]
