Mike Coughlan is one of the most popular and richest Engineer who was born on February 17, 1959 in United Kingdom. Mike Coughlan, a British motor racing engineer/designer was born 17 February 1959. From 2002 to 2007, he was the McLaren Formula One Team’s Chief Designer. He was then suspended from McLaren for his role in the spying scandal between McLaren, Ferrari, and his contract was terminated. According to Williams F1, he was Chief Technical Officer from June 2011 through July 2013. He then abruptly resigned “with immediate effect.”
Coughlan is believed to be the subject of the search warrant. The “positive outcome” refers to documents that were claimed to have been created at Ferrari’s Maranello plant. Stepney’s firing from Ferrari was announced earlier in the day. Honda F1 issued a statement on 6 July confirming that Stepney had approached the team about “job opportunities” in June 2007. McLaren has provided a complete set of drawings and documents to the FIA detailing every update to the chassis of the team since April’s incident.
Coughlan worked for Stefan Grand Prix in late 2009 when the Serbian team was trying to gain an entry into Formula One for the 2010 season.
On 3 May 2011 it was announced that Coughlan was hired by the Williams F1 team as the chief engineer, in part replacing the then technical director Sam Michael and chief aerodynamicist Jon Tomlinson. After the relative success of 2012, Williams endured a difficult start to the 2013 season, failing to score a point with their FW35 before announcing, on 16 July that Coughlan had been replaced with immediate effect by Pat Symonds. Coughlan’s period as chief engineer was dominated by a period of investigation into exhaust driven diffusers, that was described as “a disastrous technical foray”.
The A23 car he designed in 2002 for Arrows was later used as the Super Aguri team’s SA05 racecar four year later.
