À propos de cet audio
In the second part of our Driver Factory deep-dive, we delve into the world of junior driver academies, breaking down how different F1 teams train high-potential talent, the strategic maneuvering behind seat selections, and why image, connections, and perfect timing can make or break a career in Formula 1.
We also explore ongoing initiatives to bring more diverse talent and women into the sport. And yes, we’re doing it all with a snakes-and-ladders-style game that makes the journey to the grid fun (and just a little bit chaotic).
This episode wraps up our two-part special on how F1 talent is made. In Part 1, we covered the entire pipeline from karting to F3, the eye-watering costs that can run into the millions, and the ongoing controversy around pay drivers, so if you haven’t listened to that yet, go check it out.
We’ll be back next week with a brand-new race episode for the Belgian Grand Prix, so hit subscribe and stay tuned!
