It is an expression of our shared belief in the power of design, technology, and performance to drive meaningful change. “Beyond the racetrack, this partnership has also allowed us to elevate how we work every day. Thanks to HP’s cutting-edge devices and technologies, we’ve been able to enhance the efficiency, connectivity, and flexibility of our workspaces, providing every member of our team with the best possible environment in which to perform at their highest level. “It’s a symbol of how far we’ve come together, and a glimpse of the road ahead.
