As a father that adores this team, it gives me hope that if my daughter wants to pursue a career in F1 there will people like this young lady to help inspire her along the way🙌🏼

She explained more of her job than any of the interviewed engineers...

[curtisboulton]

Amazing initiative! Providing a great stepping-stone for every member of the team amazing hardworking commitment in all every department! ❤

[abhijeetkashid]

Awesome to see that team is providing a stepping stone for the new passionate lads to become a part of formula one or the Motorsports in general.
I Would been thrilled to have an opportunity like this in my younger days. But not now as i am entering into my 40's. Organizing and officiating in local racing events is good for me today.

I check vacancies regularly too. I don’t know what role I would ever take, but I guess I’ll know it if/when I see it. Mercedes AMG F1 as an organisation is nothing short of beautiful.

[MrMrYe]

I love how vital every little bit roles is VERY important

[Unamatrix]

That is outstanding, yet another reason showing why the Mercedes-AMG F1 team is the reference point in F1.

[ruzaroos]

Saw this when it came out, but I'm just realizing I got to see Abbie and the heritage team at the launch event for the Las Vegas GP. She seemed so happy being able to interact with the fans and answer their questions. That trip must have been an amazing one during the apprenticeship.

[dkakadannykay]

Its great seeing more girls in F1 but not only that a new generation of Engineers ect overall.
Just a side note F1 tyres are made out to be heavier than they actually are or Abbie as some big guns on her 💪💪 because those tyres looks huge against Abbie.
All the best for Abbie at Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team.

[kctaylero]

i got to meet her in vegas and she was one of the nicest and most adorable people i’ve ever met. GO we love you!

[gabrielbarreto]

What a dream must be working with Mercedes, just the top team inside F1

[nigelharris]

[ivonribie]

[NeelkanthEarthmovers]

It's absolutely believable that it takes this many people to build the best family in F1.
