Talking Bull

To celebrate International Women in Engineering Day, hosts Nicola Hume and Tommo McCluskey are joined by Red Bull Academy Programme Manager, Sarah Harrington, and Trackside Controls Engineer for Red Bull Racing, Ainhoa Begiristain. 

Sarah and Ainhoa shed light on what it’s like to work behind the scenes in Oracle Red Bull Racing, from the thousands of ways to program a steering wheel to the work done to speed up a drivers’ reaction time at the start of the race. Sarah shares her path to working in the F1 academy, and how she looks to the future, as well as highlighting the unique challenges of scouting. And Ainhoa discusses her role, and how she made it to the control room trackside to be a key part of the race day operation. There are also a bunch of questions from the Paddock, on everything from drivers’ nutrition to the role of AI.

And finally, Sarah and Ainhoa share their tips for women wanting to work in motorsport, and they highlight that diversity of background, opinion, and approach is always a strength in the team.

Oracle Red Bull Racing are famous for the amazing stunts they put on with their retired F1 cars - from Checo driving the RB7 through a Las Vegas casino, to David Coulthard doing donuts on the helipad of a skyscraper - and today we meet the dream team that get to bring these ideas to life! 

Joining Nic in the Talking Bull studio are Heritage team manager Tony Burrows, No. 1 Mechanic Mark “Crunch” Lenton, and No.2 Mechanic Thibaut Conand to answer questions like “who thinks of all these stunts” and “has a stunt ever come close to going seriously wrong?” (spoiler: no it hasn’t!).

The team also reflect on their relationship with the main racing team, from Crunch’s memories of being on lollipop duty as a pit crew member, to how the team share knowledge and skills today so that everyone can get the best performance out of the cars.

Plus we take your questions from the Paddock - could an F1 car ever drive upside down? And just how challenging was the zero gravity pit stop stunt to pull off?
