Sabe’s Beginning

Gerson is a Mechanical Engineer specialised in aerodynamics. He has 20 years of experience working with thermal and fluid dynamic applications, including a 10-year period working as an F1 aerodynamicist in car design development, race car performance analysis, and establishing correlation levels across CFD, wind tunnel, and track. Gerson holds a doctorate degree from the University of São Paulo.

Peter has worked in aerodynamic development in Formula 1 and automotive for 11 years. During this time he has gained experience in wind tunnel testing, installation for both model and full-scale cars, CAD and CFD development to thermal and force targets using various packages. More recently Peter held the position of Head of Aerodynamics on the Dyson Automotive project.

John Iley is a motor racing design engineer specialising in aerodynamics and technical management. His career spans over 32 years; he has been Head of Aerodynamics at several top F1 Teams and Performance Director at Caterham F1. He has been involved in programmes that have won many races and Drivers/Constructors/Team Championships in F1, Indycar, Sportscars, WRC and GT. 

Antoan is an engineer specialised in motorsport aerodynamics, with a broad experience in the automotive sector and knowledge of product development following a period working in chassis design for OEMs. He has been involved in numerical simulations and aerodynamic development while competing in the British Sidecar Championship. Antoan holds a masters in Race Car Aerodynamics from the University of Southampton.

Vahid is a mechanical engineer specialising in fluid mechanics. With a strong background in scientific computing and CFD, he has been involved in various research innovations in aerospace, maritime preservation, and biomedical applications associated with numerical simulations, analysis, and design component improvement. He holds a doctoral degree in fluid-particle dynamics and near-wall flow modelling from the University of Bristol.

Chaitra recently graduated with a degree in aerospace systems engineering from Coventry University. Since a very young age, she has been passionate about motorsport and aviation. Her curiosity pushed her to work in the industry, where she was involved with testing Hydrogen fuel cells for aircraft and as an aerodynamics intern at Sabe. Her final-year dissertation explored active aerodynamics within F1, focusing on using CFD and Wind Tunnel testing to obtain results.

Jacob is currently pursuing a degree in Motorsports Engineering at Oxford Brookes University, with a focus on specializing in aerodynamics. His interest in this field was sparked by its significant impact on motorsports, leading him to seek professional opportunities in aerodynamics. As an Aerodynamics Intern at Sabe, Jacob contributes to various aspects of the field, including CAD, aerodynamic development, post-processing, and data analysis.       .
