Stuart Hughes, Head of Health & Safety at Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team, joins us in this episode recorded at the HSE Global Series and produced by LABS. Stuart shares what safety looks like at the cutting edge of motorsport—from high-speed pit stops to pushing human and mechanical limits. He reflects on the balance between performance and protection, how communication and culture underpin real safety, and why genuine collaboration matters more than checklists. With honesty, insight, and a bit of humour, Stuart offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at safety in one of the world’s most high-pressure environments.
