GoBig’s Simon Langford Heads to Silverstone for Focus Cup Action
This weekend, our Managing Director Simon Langford will be lining up on the grid at one of the UK’s most iconic motorsport venues—Silverstone—for the latest round of the 2025 Focus Cup Championship.
Simon races in a 2008 Ford Focus, car number #474, proudly wrapped in GoBig branding. While the day job involves leading the charge at GoBig Online—building cutting-edge tools like GoTalk.ai and GoSafe—Simon’s weekends are often spent in the driver’s seat, competing in one of the UK’s most exciting single-make race series.
Silverstone is a special circuit for any driver. Known as the home of British motorsport, it’s fast, technical, and steeped in history. With a mix of high-speed corners and challenging braking zones, it’s a real test of skill and setup—something Simon and the team have been preparing for both on and off the track. Alongside real-world practice, he’s been putting in time on iRacing to fine-tune his lines and get dialled in ahead of the weekend.
At GoBig, we talk a lot about performance and precision—two qualities that apply just as much to racing as they do to software. Whether it’s optimising a car for race day or refining our AI tools for telecom and IT resellers, it’s all about getting the most out of what you’ve got.
Simon’s racing journey has always mirrored his entrepreneurial one—focused, competitive, and constantly evolving. And while the Focus Cup might be a change of pace from boardrooms and software releases, it’s still driven by the same mindset: push harder, improve constantly, and enjoy the ride.
We’ll be posting updates throughout the weekend, so if you’re into motorsport—or just curious to see what our MD gets up to on race days—keep an eye on our LinkedIn and Instagram channels.
Good luck, Simon!
