Vodafone McLaren Mercedes has announced that Tim Goss, formerly the team's Director of Engineering, has been appointed to the position of Technical Director, effective immediately.
 
Goss joined McLaren in 1990 as a Development Engineer, and has been a central and successful stalwart of the team's engineering and technical function ever since, leading car design operations since his elevation to Director of Engineering in January 2011.

"As before, I'll be leading our car design operations, while continuing the process of evolving and improving our technical and engineering function in collaboration with Martin [Whitmarsh], Jonathan [Neale], Sam [Michael], Neil [Oatley] and the rest of Vodafone McLaren Mercedes' hugely experienced technical and engineering team," Goss said.
