In the dynamic world of Formula 1, a new star is rising. Laura Müller, the first female race engineer in the sport, has made a successful start with the Haas team, following her promotion from performance engineer in 2022.

Müller's journey began in Munich, where she studied mechanical engineering after graduating from high school. Her passion for Formula 1 was ignited by none other than the legendary Michael Schumacher. Before joining Haas, she honed her skills as a race engineer for Sophia Flörsch in the DTM with the Abt team.

Müller's good work ethic and meticulous approach have been key factors in her success. Ayou Komatsu, Haas team boss, praises her goal-oriented character, noting that Müller is not satisfied with the first answer, always seeking ten more questions to answer after solving a problem.

Müller's enthusiasm for Formula 1 remains undiminished, even after Schumacher's retirement. Currently, she works alongside Esteban Ocon, who ranks tenth in the driver standings. Together, they have collected 27 points for Haas in 14 GP weekends.

Their next opportunity for points comes at the Dutch Grand Prix, forecasted to have rain on August 31st. Good communication between Ocon and Müller will be crucial in navigating the challenging conditions.

Despite her success, Müller is not fond of interviews, preferring to let her work speak for itself. As a trailblazer in Formula 1, Müller is one of the few women in the sport and the first woman to hold the position of race engineer.

The article encourages readers to get to know Laura Müller better, highlighting the successful start of her new role at Haas. With her thorough problem-solving skills and unwavering dedication, Müller is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in the world of Formula 1.
