Inside F1: Life alongside legends

Product Information

People want to be engaged and they want to figure out what can we do about driving this change together. A computerised system that detects if either of a car's driven (rear) wheels is losing traction - ie spinning - and transfers more drive to the wheel with more traction, thus using its more power efficiently. ERS is capable of providing 120kw of power (approximately 160bhp) for approximately 33 seconds per lap.

If there’s one biggest surprise it would be how much willingness there is, bearing in mind I’ve been in this sport for a long time. And we really want to address that balance and encourage more girls to take up karting at the grassroots level. And with that new audience there's come a realisation from within the sport that it needs to be more diverse, and that includes on track. When I'm at home I go to the gym every day and go on a bike for, like, a three-hour bike ride once a week. From spending time in the paddock as a teen, to becoming a highly respected F1 journalist and presenter, Lee McKenzie has been at the heart of motorsport for almost 20 years.A typical Formula One race compound will have more than ten ingredients such as rubbers, polymers, sulphur, carbon black, oil and other curatives. A synthetic fibre that is combined with epoxy resin to create a strong, lightweight composite used in F1 car construction. What marks motor racing out from other sports is that just to compete need a huge amount of money behind you. You get to that tipping point, and we’ve seen that in women’s football, in women’s cricket and in women’s rugby, that school-age girls are realising, ‘I can play rugby and I can play football’.

She took a horse from England to Michael Schumacher's ranch in Switzerland to compete against him in a western riding competition and she went to film with the current world champion Max Verstappen when he was too young to legally drive on the roads. Quite simply, the numbers are not where they need to be for the female talent pool – both on and off the track – and the battle to alter that starts at the grassroots. Entry to the Inside F1® event is included with Trophy and Hero Ticket Packages at selected races around the world*. Saudi-backed LIV Golf has launched a series of incredibly lucrative tournaments, designed to take on the establishment. A term used to describe the movement of an F1 car around an imaginary vertical axis through the centre of the car.I didn’t really imagine it when I joined F1 Academy, and then it was announced, so it’s really great to have her leading and we know it’s in safe hands. It indicates funding for an editorial project or content that is commissioned by Financial Times editors and produced by FT journalists, with no involvement from the sponsor.

The ideal compound is one with maximum grip but which still maintains durability and heat resistance. Driving style, track conditions, car set-up, fuel load and the tyre itself all play a role in graining.

The first place on the starting grid, as awarded to the driver who recorded the fastest lap time in qualifying.

And what would be really great would be to send a female driver after them that's also been through the team. They realise, for long-term success and how the sport is going in the last years, with a growing female fan demographic, how are we connecting with those fans?Speaking of role models, you can’t look too far beyond Wolff and her influence within what F1 Academy is trying to accomplish.
