Best advice for someone looking to get into F1 would be to move to the UK.

Pretty bad ass. I did motorsports engineering in my undergrad in the US. Its pretty pointless here unless, but it was some good stuff taught.

Currently I'm a DOD civilian for the Navy working as a manufacturing/quality engineer. I travel the country to visit all of my contractors I oversee.

How are Navy eng jobs? Are most engineering positions project and operations oriented rather than design/analysis engineering? I'm currently working for shipbuilding in Newport News VA, specifically supporting nuke refueling ops. I figure i would have a decent chance of landing a spot with NAVSEA with the refueling exposure im getting here, once i finish my MS. Did Mechanical/Motorsports in undergrad and obtaining Systems Eng for grad.
