Research notes and caveats
Confirmed across Wikipedia + The Race + Formula1.com as Lance Stroll's senior race engineer for 2026, paired with RE Stephen Glass. One of the more senior/experienced engineers on the grid (F1 since 2011). Education (Cornell, Mechanical Engineering) per Wikipedia; degree level and years not stated. f1_debut_year 2011 (Virgin Racing, trackside aero); years_to_race_engineer = 2 (2011 -> first RE seat 2013 with Chilton). Gap 2015 reflects no listed role between Marussia's collapse and Haas's 2016 entry. Route tagged uni-junior-formula-to-f1 given engineering degree -> US sportscars/CART/ALMS trackside -> F1; arguably a hybrid with a sportscars entry point.
