Laura Müller Becomes Formula 1's First Female Race Engineer

The 33-year-old German breaks barriers in motorsport as she takes on a pivotal role with the Haas F1 Team.

Laura Müller, from near Konstanz, Germany, is the first woman to serve as a race engineer in Formula 1, working with Haas driver Esteban Ocon this season.
Her promotion marks a milestone for women in the male-dominated world of Formula 1, with few women historically holding prominent roles in the sport.
Müller began her motorsport journey through a DTM internship and joined Haas in 2022, advancing from simulator engineer to performance engineer before her current role.
She and Ocon have already begun building trust, a critical aspect of the race engineer-driver relationship, through pre-season training and collaboration.
Despite a challenging start in Melbourne, with Ocon finishing near the bottom in practice sessions, Müller remains focused on maximizing the team’s performance and inspiring future generations of women in motorsport.
