Research notes and caveats
Pairing with Bearman (2025 -> 2026) confirmed by RacingNews365 2026 race-engineer list and RTÉ. Education (Ulster University mech eng + Cranfield MSc Motorsport Engineering & Management) and Newry/Northern Irish origin confirmed by Wikipedia and RTÉ. Career sequence (junior single-seaters incl. Formula Renault/F3/A1GP -> Honda Racing F1 -> Brawn GP -> Mercedes -> Toro Rosso 2016 -> Williams 2020 -> Haas 2022) is sourced; the years marked on Honda/Brawn/Mercedes are inferred from the known team-transition timeline (Honda became Brawn in 2009, Brawn became Mercedes in 2010) rather than each being individually date-stamped in the source, so treat those boundary years as approximate. Toro Rosso (2016), Williams (2020), Haas (2022) and the 2025 RE promotion are explicitly sourced. f1_debut_year = 2008 (Honda Racing F1 research engineer; approximate). years_to_race_engineer ~17 (2008 F1 entry to 2025 first race-engineer seat). No distinct radio nickname found; goes by 'Ronan'.
