Overview

From the moment her parents first sat her in a go-kart, Susie Wolff felt it - the thrill of speed, the spark of something bigger. A little girl who dared to dream to one day race in Formula One. As Susie rose through the ranks of motorsport, one truth became impossible to ignore: she was almost always the only woman on the grid. And yet she held onto the unshakeable belief that instinct and resilience could carve a path through a world not designed for her. So when her racing chapter ended, she turned her mind to first transforming a struggling Formula E team and, later, leading F1 Academy, inspiring young women to enter the sport she loves. In Driven, Susie lifts the bonnet for the first time on her extraordinary life. From the driver's seat of the racing car to the heart of the F1 paddock, she offers a rare, first-hand view into the inner workings of motorsport at its highest level. With exceptional candour, she shares the story of her enduring relationship with her husband Toto and how she has navigated the balance between ambition and motherhood.

Author Information

Susie Wolff is a former professional racing driver and one of the most respected women in motorsport. She began her career in karting with a dream of one day making it to F1. After racing at the highest levels across Europe, she made history in 2014 by becoming the first woman in over two decades to take part in a Formula 1 race weekend. After hanging up her helmet, Susie brought the same drive to the business side of the sport, leading a Formula E team from the back of the grid to World Championship contenders. In 2023, she became Managing Director of F1 Academy - an all-female series backed by F1 to develop the next generation of female talent and prove that motorsport is no longer just a man's world. Susie has been widely recognised for breaking down barriers and was awarded an MBE for her contribution to women in sport in 2017.
