In the world of Formula One, performance is everything. Margins are measured in thousandths of a second, and success depends on clarity of thought, collaboration and relentless problem-solving.
Mantica was created to bring together, and is underpinned by, two complimentary pillars.
The first is ‘High Performance Engineering’ delivered though design, analysis, build and test. Utilising nearly two decades of engineering experience, including over 15 years at the cutting edge of Formula One.
The second pillar is ‘Knowledge transfer’, delivered through talks, training and workshops . Offering tailor made, knowledge transfer sessions providing a rare and honest look inside elite engineering environments and how to navigate their technical and managerial challenges.
Our Story
Engineering Skill. Shared Knowledge.
Mantica is owned and operated by Gareth Jacobs.
Gareth is an experienced mechanical design engineer who brings hands-on, real-life experience of delivering high performance solutions to complex mechanical problems.
Gareth’s 20 years’ experience in the field of Engineering includes over 15 years working in Formula 1, both in Engineering and technical management. These 15 years have bought about an incredible run of success with 10 Driver’s and 10 Constructor’s F1 World Championships.
Gareth’s experience is varied having also worked in disciplines outside of motorsport, this broad skillset helps set Mantica apart as we are able to bring problem solving solutions that can’t use the same level of cost and complexity as F1, but we can leverage F1 level Engineering, technology and manufacturing methods to any project.
Through Mantica, Gareth Jacobs also shares the lessons learned inside top-flight engineering teams – translating F1 principles into practical insights for managers, students, and technical leaders who want to raise their own performance.
