I’m going too drive a formula car upside down in a tunnel, for 5 seconds through downforce alone!

We’ve designed the car, so our next mission was to find somewhere to complete this groundbreaking stunt. But, where on earth do you do that?

We thought ‘surely there’s a tunnel somewhere in the world that could be hired for this insane challenge?’ Well, this was WAY harder than we thought.

So, let me explain the surprising reason why we actually ended up designing a tunnel OF OUR OWN!

Now, my first port of call was to find someone who knew LOADS about tunnels. So this is Andy Willis.A senior project manager in civil engineering and he’s in charge of our tunnel for Project Inversion. I set him off with the job of finding the right tunnel a couple of years ago, and it was difficult to say the least - this is how we developed a bespoke tunnel in order to make this incredible challenge possible.
