Student MEGAN WEEKS Meets F1 Academy’s SUSIE WOLFF at Historic Downing Street

August 2, 2025

• Winchester University student MEGAN WEEKS scored an invitation to 10 Downing Street’s F1 75th anniversary celebration after impressing Motorsport UK’s Tom Hartley during a campus go-karting session. The 21-year-old sports coaching student, who dreams of becoming a human performance coach for drivers, turned a casual conversation about career goals into access to the sport’s highest levels.
• At the prestigious event, MEGAN connected with F1 Academy head SUSIE WOLFF and representatives from Sauber (soon-to-be Audi F1), alongside racing legends and current drivers. Her invitation led to observing Academy and Team UK development days, where Porsche Human Performance coaches recruited her help with driver activities – proving her expertise is already being recognized by industry professionals.
• MEGAN’s understanding of racing’s physical demands impressed throughout her networking journey, explaining how drivers face massive G-forces and can lose several kilos during races. Her progression from university student to rubbing shoulders with F1 royalty at Number 10 shows what happens when preparation meets opportunity – and when young women boldly pursue their motorsport ambitions.
