Former Haas Performance Engineer Laura Muller is all set to become Esteban Ocon's race engineer from the 2025 F1 season onwards. Muller graduated from the Technical University of Munich in 2015 where she majored in Automotive Engineering. She completed her Masters from the same university two years later in the same discipline.

Laura has been with the Haas organization for years, at least since the 2022 regulations. However, she’s known as a WEC veteran for her work across multiple disciplines and cars: Muller joined the Endurance Racing series in 2019. She moved to DKR Engineering and worked in both LMP2, LMP3, DTM, and GT3 segments until 2021. In 2022, she joined Manthey Racing GmbH and GT2 European Series team under Porsche SE.

Laura Müller is 1 of the most experienced operatives in Motorsport. While completing her master's in Automative Engineering, Muller joined Phoenix Racing as an intern in 2014. She then worked as an Engineer Formula Renault 2.0 at Josef Kaufmann Racing in 2016. After spending two years in the role, Muller moved to Hero Motocorp in Brazil to work as a data engineer.

In 2024, Laura Muller marked 10 years in her motorsport career, starting as an intern with Audi's LMS team and now in F1, she will be a a Esteban Ocon’s engineer at the pinnacle of motorsport, the first woman to ever take the helm of race engineering through radio since Formula 1 became a sport.

they done tuned my driver into a catboy

daniel's like that one friend who says some fucked up shit out of nowhere and ruins the vibe bc the whole gang's depressed again now 😔

Reblog to scare Helmut Marko

Max Verstappen references are everywhere if you look for them (the 33 on Chase Atlantic's sax player's jersey)

and with that, the 2024 season comes to an end

Kmag setting the fastest lap, Mclaren WCC, Ferrari double podium, Colapinto's thank you to Williams, Hamilton overtaking Russell on the last lap, Toto Wolff's "if we can't win...you should win" ...WHAT IF I CRIED

Oscar managing to place P10 despite having two incidents, a 10 second penalty and pitting like 3 times is insane actually. The trend of his feats being overshadowed by other events continues I guess 😭

Not the biggest Lando fan but you have to admit he's given his all for this team and this win feels like the culmination of it all you know? He's been with them for their worst and now he's cinched their first constructor's championship since 1998 for them. A win that was 5 years in the making.

If there's a red bull seat open next year and it doesn't go to Yuki I might go to Milton Keynes and maul Christian Horner and Helmut Marko myself

One last race before the season ends and I'm already crying because Nico's at abu dhabi talking about Lewis and Mercedes during the pre-show

One last dance

Kmag could do the funniest thing in abu dhabi and podium-sandwich his career, as well as give haas a double podium finish

Everyday the chances of Max Verstappen retiring creep closer

heard the annual driver's dinner was good this year

JAMIE CHADWICK AND LOGAN SARGEANT ARE TEAMMATES VICTORY IS MINE I SAY!

Elms guide for Logan Sargeant fans

Starting with what is the European Le Mans Series (ELMS):

It’s a European series of endurance races reserved for cars such as "Le Mans Prototypes" and "Le Mans Grand Touring". The ELMS presents three different categories: LMP2, LMP2 Pro/Am, LMP3 and LMGT3.

CATEGORIES

* There are 4 categories

* All 4 categories run at the same time on track

* The cars that are performing in those classes are all different in terms of weight, size, engine

Lmp2- Race Number Background Color: BLUE (what Logan is driving !!)

* The category below the top LMH class of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) "Le Mans Prototype 2" (LMP2) is a key part of the “Endurance" family

* Each driver line up must have at least 1 silver or bronze driver, two platinum drivers can not be entered in the same line up

* it allows teams and drivers to progress to the highest level gradually.

* 1st and 2nd LMP2 competitors will be invited to the 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Lmp2 pro/am- Race Number Background Color: CYAN

* In 2021, the LMP2 grid included a separate trophy and title for competitors whose cars included a bronze driver in their line-up. This was known as LMP2 Pro/Am.

* In a change for the 2023 season, the LMP2 Pro/Am category will be run as a separate class

* a lineup of 2 or 3 drivers must include at least 1 bronze driver

* The cars will be the same as run in the LMP2 category.

* 1st LMP2 Pro/Am competitor will be invited to 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans.

LMP3- Race Number Background Color: PURPLE

* LMP3 was designed as a training ground for endurance racing, an arena in which drivers, team members, engineers, and mechanics can hone their skills and prepare for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship.

* lineup must include 1 silver and 1 bronze or 2 bronze

* from what I understand, it is a feeder series similar to f2/f3

Lmgt3- Race Number Background Color: ORANGE

* Le Mans Grand Touring Car, is a set of regulations maintained by the ACO and the FIA for Grand Tourer race cars designed for use in the ACO/FIA motor racing series. *LMGT3 cars are based on production road car models that are built and sold at the time of homologation.

* LMP2, LMP2 Pro/Am, and LMP3 competitors have one dry and one wet tyre specifications. There are two dry and one wet tyre specifications for the LMGT3 category.

* Unlike Formula 1, any equipment for warming the tyres or keeping them to temperature is forbidden.

WHERE IS LOGAN

now that we have that info dump, let’s find out where Logan fits in

Logan is going to be racing the number 18 (Ls2 SAR18)

He is racing with IDEC Sport Racing LMP2

His teammates (all three will be racing under #18)

Jamie Chadwick - 3x W Series Champion, Formula E test driver, Formula 1 Williams development driver, Indy NXT race winner

Mathys Jaubert - I don’t a lot but he is 19, finished in the top 3 of Porsche championships

Please feel free to correct me or add things in reblogs/replies :) I am very new so I will be learning with everyone 🙌

Seeing people genuinely be so happy for Zhou after he scored Sauber's first points of the season warms my heart so much. He's suffered so much scrutiny and pressure, being Chinese but also just being stuck in a bad car and not being able to show much performance. I've also never really heard him mentioned outside of his crash, his back marker-ing or at the Chinese GP, so I'm glad he's getting his moment :)

Doriane win and Abbi championship win in Qatar.. I'm being fed so good this weekend
