A new wind is blowing at Haas, where under the direction of Ayao Komatsu, this season promises radical changes. As part of this, they begin 2025 with a new driver lineup, the support of Toyota Gazoo Racing, and a historic innovation in the sport!
The latter means the first female engineer in Formula 1, which was able to emerge due to position changes within the team. Laura Müller will be Esteban Ocon's right-hand woman. Komatsu believes the pairing is a winner!
“She's an incredibly determined person. And since Esteban is also a similar figure, I think they really complement each other. Laura is the best at uncovering a specific problem; she immediately dives in, thoroughly researches, and comes up with several possible solutions. Some people stop at the first evaluable answer, but not her. She has a fantastic work ethic, knowing that if she finds the solution to a problem, she must also realize that she'll have to answer ten other questions along with it.”
"Your dedication impresses me, and I believe you will be very successful together," Ayao Komatsu praised the first lady on the pit wall.
