Are Rules Ruining F1 Innovation?

Joel Vermiglio never set out to work in Formula 1 — in fact, he didn’t have any plans to get into motorsport at all. That changed in his late teens when he got into cars, went on to study, and eventually found his way into the industry. In this conversation, Joel shares his unexpected journey to joining one of the world’s top F1 teams — proving that you don’t need a PhD in mechanical engineering to claw your way to the pinnacle of motorsport. We also dig into the inner workings of a Formula 1 team, getting as much behind-the-scenes insight out of Joel as we can. From design and build to the day-to-day operations and the brutal pace of life in F1, it’s a fascinating look into what really goes on. Finally, Joel walks us through his VW Caddy project — a Frankenstein build sparked by spotting a perfectly good(ish) McLaren race motor in the scrap bin at work. Now it’s a running, driving weapon with supercar DNA and a whole lot of DIY ingenuity. Joel’s been using our courses to learn parts of the build process that he had little experience in, so this chat also offers an interesting look at how what HPA teaches gets applied in the real world. listen to the full episode here: https://hpcdmy.co/JoelYT Follow Joel here : IG: @garage68motorsport YT: Garage 68 Motorsport WWW: http://mclaren.com/racing/ #mclaren #mclarenf1 #formula1 #highperformanceacademy #buildtunedrive #learndriveoptimise #learntotune #enginebuilding101 #wiring101 #datanerd #racecraft #cars #motorsport #racing #boost #vwcaddy #twinturbov8
