Stalled on the grid – why are there no female drivers at the top of motorsport? (BBC)

“I’m sure more women will get into the top categories in motorsport, whether hypercar or single-seaters. But to do so we need to create the structure which will allow them to shine and to grow. I think the flow will come naturally – what is important is to show women that there are possibilities in motorsport. It’s a long-term process. It will take time, but it will come.”

Logan Sargeant: ‘I’m training as hard as I can’ (Williams)

“I’m doing my best to enjoy every part of this process because I know how much of a challenge this year is going to be, to make the step up in physicality that an F1 car demands, but this is what I’ve been working towards for years. I have to make sure I can be in the best shape possible and I have huge motivation to work really hard towards that.”

MoneyGram Haas F1 Team confirmed as Main Sponsor for 2023 MK Job Show (Haas)

“At the central exhibition stand, MoneyGram Haas F1 Team will be displaying a Formula 1 show car and have staff on-site throughout the two-day event providing talks, discussing their own careers and will be on-hand to discuss more about working at the pinnacle of motorsport, as well as answer questions from attendees.”

Carlin: Every detail has been examined to find Title-winning step (F2)

“We’ve looked at every aspect of the team throughout the season, from pitstops, to set-up, to driver development, to driver sim preparations, we know where we can improve still. I think it’s lots of little bits in lots of little areas that make the difference, now it’s just kind of fine tuning really. Having had a season where we were strong, there’s improvements that can be made to make us even stronger. As we head into 2023, we’re really positive and still really ambitious that we can take another step forward yet again.”

Grand Prix Unveils New Look for 2023 and Beyond (Detroit Grand Prix)

“he new Grand Prix logo and branding theme honors the heritage of the event in the Motor City while looking ahead to its exciting future at its new home on the streets of Detroit. Elements representing Detroit – along with the Grand Prix’s primary event partner, Chevrolet, and presenting partner, Lear Corporation, are featured in the new logo design.”

Mahindra Racing’s main challenge in Formula E is to reach another level, says team CEO Frederic Bertrand (Sports Keeda)

“But let’s say the big challenge we have now is to follow the overall manufacturers (competitors). We have very strong manufacturers within the field, with Porsche, Jaguar, the Stellantis Group (Maserati, DS automobiles), and all those manufacturers are investing quite significant amounts of money to be performant and to win. And we need to make sure that on the Mahindra side, people understand what has to be done to get on to that level.”

Calado ‘so proud’ to emulate British aces in Ferrari’s Le Mans Hypercar (Motor Sport)

“I grew up reading stories about great Ferrari Le Mans drivers like Brian Redman and John Surtees, and it’s funny as John then became an incredible supporter of mine through my career. I raced against John’s son Henry in junior single-seaters, and John was a part of the Racing Steps Foundation. We were very good friends.”
