EP.37 Gabe Elias - Mercedes AMG F1 Engineer and Zilvia OG

Gabe Elias is a man on a mission. He started his journey with a S13 and a dream.  His path to working for Mercedes AMG F1 is uncommon to say the least. Through forum friends he made on the since deprecated Zilvia forum he was given the difficult path to working on the most impressive race car of the century. Gabe is a motorsport and vehicle style enthusiast to the core. For those of us who like everything from old school drift cars to the most modern race cars he bridges the gap. Working at Mercedes F1 AMG for 7 world championships through all the ups and downs certainly must have been a roller coaster. Gabe seems to have put his own personal spin on what is expected from a design engineer with his South Florida swag. Gabe's Message:  “if you have questions about getting into motorsport or automotive design, or seek mentorship starting your career in engineering, reach out to me though my website." Guest: @gabednconfused / @gabednconfusedgtrWebsite   Sponsor: Engineered To Slide use code "goodest"Goodest Co: goodestco.com Host: @palmer_sndrsn, @goodestcast Goodest Co: goodestco.com (check us out for social media links and merch!)
