Cedric Van Den Berg is a Senior Aerodynamicist with 10 years of experience specializing in Formula 1 car design and aerodynamic development, currently leading aero work at Aston Martin F1. He progressed through placements and graduate roles into senior responsibility, with hands-on contributions to floors, rear wings and brake ducts across multiple F1 seasons. Trained at Imperial College London in MEng Aeronautical Engineering, he combines rigorous academic grounding with practical race-team delivery under tight development cycles. Outside motorsport engineering he’s an active developer interested in VFX and compute, contributing UI and editor enhancements to the RARS RISC‑V simulator project. That blend of race‑car aerodynamics and software tinkering gives him a rare cross-disciplinary perspective for simulation-driven design and tooling. Colleagues credit him for turning detailed CFD and wind‑tunnel insights into pragmatic, buildable solutions.
