We sat down with Susie Wolff for one of our most in-depth conversations -- covering everything from her thrill-seeking childhood in Scotland to racing at the highest levels, navigating a male-dominated sport, and now shaping the future of motorsport through F1 Academy.
From driving a pink car in DTM to becoming Managing Director of F1
Academy, Susie opens up about identity, resilience, and what it really
takes to succeed in motorsport. We cover shooting her shot with Toto Wolff, the realities of balancing career and family, and why representation in racing matters.
Plus: behind-the-scenes stories from her new memoir Driven, the moment she realized she had to “just be herself,” and what the next generation of female drivers means for the sport.
