The McLaren Manufacturing Challenge

The McLaren Manufacturing Challenge is an annual competition designed to raise the profile and help improve the image of high-tech manufacturing and engineering.

Finalists teams are invited to spend an afternoon at the McLaren Technology Centre, where they get to see how a Formula 1 team operates and how McLaren designs its world leading super cars, before the big race begins.

Business Secretary Vince Cable was there to help present the 2012 McLaren Manufacturing Challenge trophy to this year's winning school.
