Susie Wolff, Formula 1 Driver, Businesswoman & Inspirational Female Speaker
Europe
Switzerland
Susie Wolff has come a long way in racing after starting out in karting at a young age.
Her parents, who owned a motorcycle shop in Scotland, took her to different racetracks on weekends, instilling in her a passion for racing. She started racing karts at the tender age of only eight years.
Her professional career started with the Formula Renault UK Championship, where she notched three podiums. During this period, she was also nominated for the British Young Driver of the Year Award on two occasions.
A brief spell in Formula 3 racing saw Susie Wolff go on to make her name with Mercedes-Benz in DTM, the German Touring Car Championship between 2006 and 1012. From there, Susie moved onto Formula 1 after being signed by Williams. The rest is racing history.
Susie started out as the team’s development driver, moving up to the position of test driver for the 2015 season. The 2014 British Grand Prix saw her make history when she became the first woman driver to take part in a Formula One race weekend in twenty-two years.
2016 saw Susie Wolff launch Dare To Be Different, an initiative in collaboration with the UK Motorsport Governing Body, the Motor Sports Association. Its aim is to drive female talent within predominantly male-dominated industries.
Amongst her wide range of achievements, Susie is the main Ambassador for Mercedes, Diversity Ambassador for UBS, and is the Formula 1 Analyst for Channel Four Television.
