In episode 111 your host, Fiona Pawley, interviews Leon Price - Team & Sporting Director at Envision Racing.
Listen as Leon walks us through his career in motorsport from sweeping floors and making tea at DPR racing, Head of Operations at GP3, to becoming Formula E World Champions with Envision Racing.
For Leon racing is a family affair. We talk about fond memories of his dad’s (David Price - "Pricey") career, winning Le Mans in the 80’s with Mercedes. A touching reflection on losing his best friend with the passing of Pricey. The importance of talking about how we are feeling in the tough times, finding something you enjoy for your wellbeing and looking after your people at work.
Taking a leaf out of Pricey's book – “be a nice bloke, have a lot of fun and find something to do that you love.”
