On this week’s podcast we speak to the most powerful woman in F1 today and the American who plans to be one of the two most powerful men next year.
As Chief Commercial Officer of F1 and CEO of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Emily Prazer is responsible for bringing billions of dollars of revenue into the sport. She tells us her plans to make Vegas bigger and better this year and reveals its economic impact.
Meanwhile Tim Mayer will face off against Mohammed Ben Sulayem in December’s election for FIA President. He faces an uphill task, but he strongly believes the FIA can be more professionally run. He explains why he has decided to run, what he would do differently from the current President and how he would avoid conflicts with F1 drivers over topics like jewellery and swearing.
James Allen is also joined in the studio by Autosport’s F1 Business Correspondent Mark Mann-Bryans.
