What is the F1 Fuelling system?
  this is a visually accurate replica of the fuelling systems used in Grand Prix formula one, as such is a good example of my skills in model-making.
Why an F1 Fuelling system?
  the unit was commissioned by Eircell (now Vodafone) for their sponsorship of the Grand Prix formula one season of 2000 and a series of commercials which needed to be visually exact in detail and gripping in their impact.





the project
this is not strictly a product design project or brief, however in terms of its design content it had to be treated as such. the first step was to research existing F1 fuelling equipment and then create a visual replica of the equipment, which had to be an exact match. this project had a heavy model-making content, and as such is a good example of model-making skills.
