Quoteboard:
- Rebecca Hutton, engineer, Chip Ganassi Racing: "Women In Motorsports gave me the opportunity to transition from intern to full-time in one year. Angela Ashmore was my mentor during the internship, and she continues to be a big influence on me now. You can already see the impact this initiative has had not only at Chip Ganassi Racing, but within the whole paddock. Programs like Women In Motorsports powered by PNC Bank create opportunities for us that may have been difficult to come by otherwise. I believe that this program specifically continues to accelerate those chances."
