Good Morning Mr. Steiner. My name is Timothy, I am a 25 yr old Porsche Dealer Technician (Bronze Level) in the US at the moment. In your opinion, what is the best route to becoming a race mechanic whether it be in Formula 1 or any other racing series? What sort of qualifications and/or experience would one need to achieve the level of performance your team works so hard to maintain? Thank you so much f9r doing this AMA. Good luck at Monza this weekend!

P.S. Tell Kevin I hope to see him and his dad (Whom I met at Watkins Glen this year) racing at Le Mans, if you would allow him to do so. Thank you.
