It’s a challenge that many teams have either faced in recent years or are currently tackling head-on.
At one extreme there’s Aston Martin, whose Silverstone factory – created for the birth of the original Jordan outfit in 1991 – had long ago outlived its useful life.
Owner Lawrence Stroll had the funding and commitment required to buy an adjacent site, build a completely new facility, and then demolish the old one to create more space for the next stage of the project.

When finished there’s little doubt that the Aston base will be the best of any current team, simply because it was created from scratch to 2020's specifications with no compromises.
Others have opted to continue to develop, enlarge and generally upgrade facilities that have their roots in another era.
From a humble start with the ex-Stewart/Jaguar facility, Red Bull has created a campus by acquiring neighbouring buildings and erecting new ones, notably for its growing Powertrains division.
Mercedes meanwhile has made huge changes to the site originally created as the home of BAR for the 1999 season.
