BMW Performance Centre
The BMW Performance Center is a state
of the art training facility, designed to take drivers through the
highest levels of training in state-of-the-art machinery. Teaching the
most advanced driving techniques, using the latest Formula BMW FB2
single seater racing cars, and BMW approved instructors, the centre’s
aim is to help every driver achieve their goals in advanced driving.
The FB2 single seater Formula BMW cars
are purpose-built carbon-fibre racing cars, built exactly the same way
as Formula One machines. The power-to-weight ratio makes them extremely
fast and their agility and capability challenges drivers on courses
designed to introduce drivers to race driving techniques that serve as
the foundation for all types of racing, from saloon to formula cars, all
the way through to Formula One.
Introduced in 2002, Formula BMW has
championships across Europe and the USA and added the Formula BMW Asia
Championship in 2003, which was won in 2005 by Bahrain’s Shaikh Salman
bin Rashid Al Khalifa. As a Formula BMW champion Shaikh Salman joined an
elite group of drivers including Nico Rosberg, this year’s Formula One
sensation with Williams.
Based on the philosophy that, “It
takes a pro to make a pro", the BMW Performance Driving Centre uses only
approved BMW Instructors with extensive motor racing experience. Whether
it's in the classroom or the pitlane, the most advanced driving
techniques will be explained in detail, and then put into practice. Our
instructors' aim is to develop a student's driving, and to make them
faster, more knowledgeable and safer on the race track.
