I used to live in Addlestone in NW Surrey, and I can claim that: -

Brabham F1 Racing team started out in a small factory unit a mile or so down the road.

McLaren F1 Racing team used to get their overalls cleaned in the dry cleaners on the corner of our road

Our school caretaker was a friend of Ken Tyrrell, so we used to have a Tyrrell F1 car on display at our little school fete.
