As part of Komatsu’s multi-year deal as Principal Partner of F1 team Williams Racing, two of Komatsu’s leading apprentices, selected by their peers, were given the opportunity to get up close with some of the fastest cars in the world, as they spent the weekend in the Williams Racing pit, learning the tricks of a different trade.
Alexander Connell from Komatsu’s Campbellfield branch in Melbourne, and New Zealand apprentice Brittney Lyon, got to see firsthand the fast-paced nature of an F1 pit and what is involved in keeping the car running for the elite event.
“It was an incredible experience. I was close to buying tickets for the GP this year, so as a fan to be given this opportunity, and see all the action in the pit is one I definitely won’t forget,” Alexander said.
