In this episode, Abby is joined by Peter Habicht, Stanford engineering grad turned F1 freelance journalist based in San Francisco. Peter is a contributor for TalkSPORT radio and has worked with Mercedes F1 Heritage to produce the first-ever public demonstration of the current era V6 turbo hybrid-powered Formula 1 car in the US for the inaugural Sonoma Speed Festival. He also serves as an advisor and consultant for investment analysts and media channels for an American point of view of F1.
Abby and Peter discuss the history of F1 and motorsport in the US and how bringing value from personal experiences and passion can be an extremely effective way to make one's way in F1. In addition, they discuss how Netflix's Drive to Survive successfully tapped into specific qualities the American audience associates with. Tune in to hear them discuss the future of F1 in the US and the probability of more races, an American team, or a driver under the Liberty Media era.
