Mark Arnall has spent more than two decades at the sharp end of Formula 1 as the performance coach trusted by world champions and legends. In this conversation, Mark opens up about the craft behind sustained elite performance: building travel-proof routines, managing sleep and jet lag across hundreds of days on the road, and keeping decision-making crisp when the stakes are highest.
He shares stories and pragmatic approaches from his years alongside Mika Häkkinen, Kimi Räikkönen and Sebastian Vettel, and from life inside McLaren, Lotus and Ferrari, distilling what truly moves the needle from podiums to World Championships to the boardroom.
You’ll learn how Mark’s “travel fit” philosophy translates into everyday leadership habits—hydration, mobility, recovery and simple, repeatable systems—plus how rigorous pre-briefs and debriefs compound marginal gains and culture in sport and business: designing for consistency under pressure, protecting energy, and turning discipline into competitive advantage.
