A new wind is blowing at Haas, where under the leadership of Ayao Komatsu, fundamental changes await this season. As part of this, they will enter the new 2025 season with a new driver pairing, the support of Toyota Gazoo Racing and a historic innovation in the sport!
This innovation represents the first female engineer in Formula 1 history, which could have been created thanks to personnel changes in the team. A young lady named Laura Müller will be Esteban Ocon's right-hand man. According to Komatsu, this pair is a winner!
“She’s an incredibly determined person. And because Esteban is also a similar character, I think they’re a real match. Laura’s best thing is that if she sees a problem, she immediately jumps in, digs in really deep, and comes up with multiple possible solutions. Some people stop at the first answer that makes sense, but she’s not like that. She has a fantastic work ethic and knows that if she finds a solution to one problem, she can see that she’s going to have to answer ten more questions as well.
"Her dedication amazes me, I think they will be very successful together." - praised the first lady on the pitwall Ayao Komatsu.
