Ken Anderson

For more than 30 years, Ken Anderson has been a motorsports technology leader. His experiences include designing and constructing multiple Indy 500 and IndyCar Series-winning race cars, operating as technical director for the Ligier and Onyx Formula One teams, extracting max performance from NASCAR stock cars and creating the most advanced rolling-road wind tunnel in the world, the Windshear Wind Tunnel.

Anderson’s unique motorsports resume, and relationships within the Formula One community, give US F1 Team the leadership skill set required for the immense challenge of leading a F1 team.

Anderson’s organizational approach is to create a small, streamlined operation, with the ability to design, engineer, construct, produce and test – in-house – a competitive

Formula One program while maintaining efficiencies to minimize investment while maximizing performance. That level of creativity has been a hallmark of American entrepreneurship and ingenuity, and Anderson’s desire is to demonstrate this spirit by bringing some U.S. “character” to F1.
