Two workshops. One goal: turn theory into real motorsport. 🏎️
Thanks to ITK Engineering, I guided BCN eMotorsport through vehicle dynamics and testing, bridging knowledge with performance.

A historic first for hydrogen racing.
And a proud debut for Team Hansen in a new era of motorsport.

Precision. Resilience. Adaptation.
That’s what performance really means.

We had the pace. We had the performance.
And we were taken out.

Team Hansen made its debut at the first-ever hydrogen race in history:the FIA Extreme H World Cup.
A new era for racing. A new challenge for engineering.

Andreas Bakkerud and Catie Munnings fought back from last to P5.
Lap after lap, they showed what defines this team: resilience.

For me as a performance engineer, this event proved one thing:
you can’t control everything: but you can control how fast you adapt.

Performance isn’t found.
It’s built, session by session, until everything connects.

A first for Team Brazil.
A first in Africa. ⚡🇳🇬

In Lagos, we made history, winning Team Brazil’s first-ever E1 race at the first event ever held on the continent.

[Josep M Carbonell @GRIPengineer]

This wasn’t just a win.
It was proof that precision, resilience, and teamwork always find their way to the top.

An interview can be the start of a new chapter - if you go in prepared.

That’s what my mentoring paths are designed to give you: clarity, focus, and confidence.

👉DM me if you’re ready to prepare for your next opportunity in motorsport.

Talent isn’t enough to pass a world championship team interview.

You need clarity and insight into what teams really expect.

Antonio, a vehicle dynamics engineer, was preparing for a top level interview.
Nervous. Uncertain. No roadmap.

One mentoring session changed everything.

[Josep M Carbonell @GRIPengineer]

“Josep gave me structure, focus and confidence. His insights into how top-level teams operate helped me approach the interview with clarity.”

Precise. Motivating. Valuable.

[Josep M Carbonell @GRIPengineer]

Turning theory into control.
Turning control into results.
That’s the lesson Formula E gave me, and I carry it everywhere.

👉 If you’re starting your path in motorsport, what’s the first lesson you want to master?

4 years ago I was in Formula E – but it feels like a lifetime. ⚡🏎

My first step into electric racing.

Where performance engineering wasn’t about theory.
It was about control.

#GRIPthrowback

[Josep M Carbonell @GRIPengineer]

Since then I’ve engineered across:

🏎 IndyCar
🌍 Rallycross
🌊 E1 electric powerboats

But Formula E is still where I learned to think differently as an engineer.

@llluis555 It is important they know how to start in Motorsport, and also that there is life outside of F1! Your blog really helps with that, I have been a long time follower
