A job in F1 beckons

Infiniti and Renault Sport F1 are offering seven engineering students the opportunity to be part of their teams for 12 months.

Applications to be part of the 2017 Infiniti Engineering Academy close on 20 May.

The ‘Asia and Oceania’ (includes Australia) regional winner will join successful students from six other regions in moving to England for 12 months to work at the cutting edge of automotive engineering and learn from the best.

All travel and accommodation costs are covered, you earn a salary and have your own Infiniti car to drive.

“I was by no means ‘top of my class’ in any area of my education and I came from a regional area,” explained 2016 Asia and Oceania winner Jaden Partridge. “If I made ithere, then it goes to show where motivation and commitment can take you.

“If you share the passion to work in the pinnacle of automotive and motorsport engineering, and you are an individual seeking challenges, then you owe it to yourself to apply for the Infiniti Engineering Academy.”

Now in its fourth year, the academy has already produced positive outcomes with William Priest (class of 2014) working at Infiniti and Daniel Sanham (class of 2015) working at the Renault Sport F1 Team.

This is without doubt a money-can’t-buy, life-changing opportunity.

It also highlights the crossover between Infiniti road cars and Renault F1 racers.

“Infiniti brings two key elements to the Renault Sport Formula One Team: expertise in the Energy Recovery Systems (SRS) through Performance Hybrid technology and an international diversity of young, fresh thinking engineering talent , thanks to the Academy,” explained Mr Cyril Abiteboul, Managing Director of the Renault Sport F1 Team.
