Chris Dyer (born 12 February 1968) is the former head of vehicle performance group at Renault Sport Formula 1 Team and the former race engineer of Michael Schumacher and Kimi Räikkönen at Scuderia Ferrari.
Born in Bendigo, Victoria,[1] Dyer worked with the top V8 Supercar outfit, the Tom Walkinshaw owned Holden Racing Team in the mid-1990s alongside drivers like Peter Brock and Craig Lowndes.
[3] Dyer then race engineered Schumacher to his 2003 and 2004 world titles, appearing with the German on the podium after his triumph at the 2003 Canadian Grand Prix.
Despite suggestions that the pair did not always get the most from the package, Räikkönen took the title in 2007 at the final race by a single point over Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso.
[9] In October 2012, it was announced that Dyer was to join BMW's Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) programme as chief engineer.
