THE FIA AND THE WOMEN IN MOTORSPORT COMMISSION (WIMC) About the FIA The Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) was founded in 1904. It is the governing body for world motor sport and the federation of the world’s leading motoring organisations. It brings together 227 national motoring and sporting organisations from 138 countries on five continents. On the 11th December 2009, the World Motor Sport Council, presided over by the President of the FIA Jean Todt, approved the project to create a “Women in Motorsport Commission” (WIMC) Since its creation, the WIMC has received much support from motor sport’s National Sporting Authorities (ASNs) and the motor industry across the world of motor sport THE PRESIDENT OF THE WIMC Michèle Mouton First woman to win a round of the FIA World Rally Championship Winner of four World Championship rallies in the 1980s World Rally Vice-Champion in 1982 Earned respect in a man’s world not only for her driving, but also for her personality and passion Manager of the FIA World Rally Championship “The Women in Motorsport Commission aims to create a sports culture which facilitates and values the full participation of women in all aspects of the sport.” “There are already a number of highly successful women working in our sport, but we also need to invest in the future and encourage the younger generation to view it as a world of equal opportunities. Motor sport is not just about driving; it is an arena that provides openings in a whole sphere of dierent areas. Knowing these opportunities exist is all part of an important communication plan for the Commission and our national sporting authorities.” “The Women in Motorsport Commission aims to create a sports culture which facilitates and values the full participation of women in all aspects of the sport.” “There are already a number of highly successful women working in our sport, but we also need to invest in the future and encourage the younger generation to view it as a world of equal opportunities.

It’s been a year of both triumph and, unfortunately, tragedy and in this issue we take time out to remember María de Villota, whose passing in October left a deep void not just in motor sport but in all our hearts. María’s bravery following her F1 testing accident and the dedication she displayed afterwards – not only in promoting female involvement in motor sport but also safety on the road and track – will be missed. Elsewhere, it was a year of great success for women competitors and in this edition we look at Lucile Cypriano’s victory in the VW and commission-supported shoot-out for a place in next year’s VW Scirocco R-Cup and reveal how the FIA European Rallycross Championship has become a haven for female racers. It’s been a great year for CONTACTS: women in all forms of motor sport and IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ABOUT THIS NEWSLETTER OR we look forward to even more in 2014! STORIES FOR THE NEXT ISSUE, WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU.

    Motorsport Information FIA World Rally Championship (WRC), Rally Spain Champions, champions, champions, champions*! Ogier/Ingrassia claim fourth WRC title in a row with Volkswagen § Crowned with a win: Ogier/Ingrassia wrap up world title after eleven rallies § Title defence sees champions join Kankkunen and Mäkinen in exclusive club § Match point number two for Volkswagen in the Manufacturers’ Championship Wolfsburg (16 October 2016). Sébastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia (F/F) were crowned World Rally Champions for the fourth time in a row after taking victory at the Rally Spain. They guided their Volkswagen Polo R WRC to a fifth win of the season in Catalonia, finishing ahead of Dani Sordo/Marc Martí (E/E, Hyundai) und Thierry Neuville/Nicolas Gilsoul (B/B, Hyundai). Their ninth podium in eleven races triggered wild celebrations. The Frenchmen can no longer be caught at the top of the overall standings in the 2016 FIA World Rally Championship (WRC). Team-mates Andreas Mikkelsen/Anders Jæger (N/N) went into the Rally Spain as their closest rivals in the title race, but the Norwegians’ hopes of winning the championship were dashed when they were forced to retire from the rally. Eighth place in the Manufacturers’ classifications for Jari-Matti Latvala/Miikka Anttila (FIN/FIN) means Volkswagen is well- placed to claim its fourth Manufacturers’ title in a row next time out at the Rally Great Britain. Kankkunen, Mäkinen and Ogier – up there with the biggest names in rallying 952 days in a row at the top of the table: Sébastien Ogier is only the third World Rally Champion to be crowned champion four years in a row in the pinnacle of rallying, and the fourth four-time world champion in the history of the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC).

  • Fast-Cars in Schools: a CADET Outreach Initiative John M
    AAEE2017 CONFERENCE Manly, Sydney, Australia Fast-Cars in Schools: a CADET Outreach Initiative John M. Long, Leanne Collins, Jason Steinwedel, Jessica Sautner, and Simon Cavenett School of Engineering, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] SESSION Educating the Edisons of the 21st Century CONTEXT In order to provide for Australia’s long-term needs for engineers, it has become apparent that the profession needs to promote itself to school-age children. This is so that the seeds of interest in engineering are planted early enough so that they can grow. Recent research indicates that this can be most effectively done in primary schools. Students tend to decide whether they have an interest in STEM fields before secondary school. The Centre for Advanced Design and Engineering Training (CADET) was established as a facility for educating engineers, starting in primary school and providing facilities and expertise all the way to doctoral studies. One key component of CADET’s mission is to provide outreach programs in engineering to students in both primary and secondary school. PURPOSE A primary-school outreach program was developed to give students an authentic engineering experience in the context of developing a small racing car and working with an associated cross-disciplinary team. The program was designed to be completely immersed and integrated with the Victorian Curriculum at year six. APPROACH The program was named “Fast Cars in Schools.” Teams of students from a number of primary schools developed a complete racing package of a small car, team jerseys, logos, advertising posters, and even sponsorship.

  • Program F1 in Schools E-Learning
    The Randstad Williams Engineering Academy has been set up to provide pupil’s with specific academic and career support in their route towards becoming Formula One engineers. The aim is to support future talented engineers by sharing expertise from top William’s engineers combined with advice from Randstad to increase employability. The wider benefit will be to inspire school aged children to study engineering and aspire to a career in Formula One. Program The Randstad Williams Engineering Academy (RWEA) is a remote e-learning programme that will see 10 students join each year and receive support, training and guidance to underpin their engineering education. The eligibility criteria are: - To apply students must be in a team competing at the F1 in Schools World Finals competition - They must be 16-18 years of age at the time the Academy begins (October each year) - The Academy is open to all nationalities - They must be fluent in written and spoken English - Successful applicants will be able to demonstrate a passion for engineering and a desire to work as an engineer in the future This is a competitive scheme, with each cohort of students gradually whittled down in numbers based on performance criteria. The goal is for successful graduates of the Academy to join Williams upon completion of their university studies. F1 in Schools F1 in Schools is a not for profit organisation based in the UK that operates a global competitive programme through which schools enter teams of aspiring engineers to design and build miniature racing cars. Groups of 3 - 6 students have to design and manufacture a miniature "car" out of balsa wood.
