Pitlane Lessons

Marc Priestley worked for McLaren from 2000-2009, winning the World Championship with Lewis Hamilton in 2008. Under the legendary Ron Dennis, he worked with such other Championship-winning drivers as Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen and Mika Hakkinen. His memoir of that time, The Mechanic, was published in 2017, and has sold over a hundred thousand copies.

Since leaving McLaren he has worked with businesses around the world as a keynote speaker and consultant, advising on strategy and performance. Marc provides expert analysis as part of the BBC's F1 commentary team and is the co-host of the hugely popular television show, Wheeler Dealers. He hosts his own podcast, Pitlane Life Lessons, speaking to and drawing lessons from the best that the world of F1 has to offer.
