The winners’ adrenaline-rush during the thrilling car racing Simulator Challenge was converted into nine free passes to an experience of a lifetime. The Simulator Challenge was organized by Vodafone over the past few months across the Maltese Islands.

The winners will leave Malta on October 27 for an all-inclusive trip that includes a guided tour of the impressive McLaren Technology Centre, which is the corporate and production headquarters of the McLaren Group.  The nine winners will be hosted as VIPs and will be given presentations on McLaren and the Formula One industry.  All winners will be able to take an extensive look at the Formula One facility, visit the historical collection of cars and trophies and come back with a memorable group photo with the Vodafone McLaren Merecedes F1 car.

“Most of the winners are eager F1 followers so they’re ecstatic about winning the trip to such an inconic F1 landmark that is the McLaren centre,” said Maria Vella Galea, Brand Manager at Vodafone Malta.  “And for those who don’t support McLaren during the season, we hope this visit will convert them over to the McLaren team!” joked Maria.

The state-of-the-art Centre brings together all of the Group’s activities in a building that spans 57,000 square metres – an area large enough to hold nine Boeing 747 jumbo jets. 

McLaren Racing is the company behind Vodafone McLaren Mercedesand comprises a multitude of administrative and engineering departments, ranging from vehicle design and aerodynamics, to materials science.
