F1 Academy Deep Dive | Is It Actually Working?

from Why Are You Yelling? Hosted by Why Are You Yelling?

In this episode, we’re doing a full deep dive into F1 Academy: what it is, why it was created, how it has evolved, and what it has actually achieved so far. We talk about the barriers women have faced in motorsport, why Susie Wolff was the perfect choice to lead the series, how F1 team support changed everything, and where some F1 Academy graduates are now. We also get into what the series still needs to improve, why visibility matters so much, and why F1 Academy is worth watching beyond just waiting for a future female F1 driver.
