New £200 million Aston Martin F1 factory begins to take shape

Construction of Aston Martin's new factory is progressing steadily. The entire complex, which will cost the Formula 1 team around £200 million, is due for completion in 2023.

An update on the construction of Aston Martin's new headquarters came along earlier, but now progress can also be seen in aerial photos shared by the team on social media. These show that one of the buildings is already starting to take shape, while another is due for completion in 2023.

To make way for the new building, the historic Jordan factory will be demolished in 2023. The old building was commissioned by Jordan in 1991 and was used by the team's various new owners in later years.

When Eddie Jordan sold his team at the end of 2005, the Silverstone-based racing team was renamed Midland F1, before going on as Spyker F1, Force India, Racing Point and eventually Aston Martin F1 Team.
