Bristol, UK, 4 March 2026
Dynisma Ltd.® confirms that its DMG-1 driving simulator is now fully operational at Rodin Motorsport’s newly announced Driver Performance Centre, unveiled this week near the team’s Surrey headquarters.
The purpose-built facility represents a significant investment in driver development infrastructure. Located close to Rodin Motorsport’s main race workshop in Farnham, the Driver Performance Centre integrates the Dynisma DMG-1 full-motion simulator alongside five static simulators, a dedicated driver training gym, and a professional simulation control room with pit wall-style operations and integrated data analysis suites. The centre supports Rodin’s multi-series programme across FIA Formula 2, FIA Formula 3, F1 Academy, Formula Regional European Championship (FREC), GB3 and British F4.
The DMG-1 is already supporting preparation for the opening rounds of the 2026 FIA Formula 2 and FIA Formula 3 seasons, with integration into the team’s F1 Academy programme forming part of its wider driver development structure.
Rodin Motorsport operates across multiple levels of the international single-seater ladder, and the Driver Performance Centre has been established to provide a consistent, high-performance training environment for drivers progressing through those categories.
The Dynisma DMG-1 enables detailed vehicle setup exploration, qualifying simulations, circuit familiarisation, race scenario rehearsal and performance optimisation before a car hits the track. With ultra-low latency motion response of 3–5 ms and primary motion bandwidth exceeding 100 Hz, the platform delivers the fidelity required for highly accurate Driver-in-the-loop correlation work.
In categories such as Formula 2 and Formula 3, where physical testing is limited to just a handful of days before the season, high-accuracy simulation plays a central role in reducing unknowns prior to race weekends. The DMG-1 allows Rodin’s engineers to iterate vehicle model changes rapidly, validate setup direction and refine driver feedback loops within a controlled environment.
The dedicated simulator control room ensures that vehicle models and analysis workflows mirror those used trackside, strengthening correlation and supporting more informed engineering decisions. For drivers, the fidelity of the motion platform helps build confidence and develop technical understanding ahead of each Grand Prix.
David Dicker, Owner, Rodin Motorsport, said: “The better the simulator, the better our potential results will be. I feel we are getting the best equipment available to us. If you are not moving forward, you are going backwards. Investing in this level of technology reflects our commitment to building a world-class environment for our drivers and engineers.”
Benn Huntingford, Sporting Director, Rodin Motorsport, said: “The simulation technology helps us to shorten the development cycles of everything that we do, so that we can prepare more in advance before we get to a circuit. Using a simulator like Dynisma’s allows us to arrive better prepared and more competitive by the time a race begins. That’s a big part of driver development and overall team performance. Initially we’ll focus on our F3 and F2 programmes, before integrating it further into F1 Academy. Dynisma is founded by people who understand motorsport, and the technology puts us right at the cutting edge of what is possible.”
Alex Dunne, FIA Formula 2 Driver, Rodin Motorsport, said: “This week we’ve been getting ready for Round 1 of the F2 Championship and running through many different programs on the simulator. At F2 level and above, you do very few laps on a race weekend, so you rely heavily on what you’ve learned in the simulator. We’ve replicated the car model well and it’s very similar to the real car. The feeling over kerbs, lock-ups, understeer and oversteer is very impressive.”
Tom Edwardes, Head of Driver-in-the-Loop Simulation, Rodin Motorsport, said: “This is Rodin’s first full-motion platform, so it was critical that we integrated it properly into our engineering process. We’re using the same vehicle models, data processing and analysis workflows that we use both online and offline, so correlation is consistent and we can iterate through setup changes and gather driver feedback within minutes. For many of our junior drivers, this is their first experience of a platform like this, so part of our role is helping them adapt to the motion, build confidence and strengthen their communication with race engineers.”
Ash Warne, Founder and CTO, Dynisma, said: “Rodin Motorsport has made a clear investment in building a structured driver development ecosystem with its new Driver Performance Centre. The DMG-1 sits at the heart of that environment, providing a high-correlation platform where engineers and drivers can explore setup direction, validate vehicle models and refine performance before race weekends. In championships with limited testing, that level of fidelity and responsiveness becomes a critical competitive tool. We are pleased to support Rodin Motorsport as they integrate advanced motion simulation into their long-term performance strategy.”
Developed and manufactured by a specialist team focused on high-performance motion generation, Dynisma supplies driving simulators to motorsport teams and automotive OEMs worldwide. Dynisma systems are available as turnkey solutions or can be customised to integrate with a wide range of chassis and visualisation environments for both competition and vehicle development applications.
