Tom Stallard, Oscar Piastri’s race engineer and McLaren’s
Director of Human Performance, is a man of many talents.

As a professional rower, he won an Olympic silver medal and
became World Champion. As an engineer in Formula 1, he’s won
races with some of the sport’s most talented drivers and has
played a huge part in McLaren’s transformation into title
contenders.

So why did Tom make such a big career change and how does working
in F1 compare to rowing?

Speaking to Tom Clarkson at McLaren’s headquarters, Stallard
talks about his gruelling fitness regime as an Olympic rower,
what a race engineer’s relationship with their driver is all
about, working with the likes of Jenson Button, Daniel Ricciardo
and Carlos Sainz, how Oscar Piastri is galvanising the team now,
and much more.
