When 3D printing technology started to creep into F1 in the late 1980s, nobody would have foreseen how widespread its use would become.
Host Edd Straw is joined by Matt Jones from Stratasys, who tells us all about how additive manufacturing is used in F1 today and how much the technology has evolved over the years. It might surprise you to hear just how many parts are made using such techniques.
