Zak Brown

Zak Brown fascinates me as a rare figure who has lived both sides of motorsport. Spending ten years racing professionally before pivoting to run McLaren Racing means he steers the business with a driver's instinct still intact, and that combination tends to keep a team honest and hungry. I respect executives who once gripped the wheel themselves, because they rarely forget what happens at the sharp end of the track.
