BREAK/FIX the Motorsports & Vehicle Enthusiast Podcast
Leisure:Automotive
Katharine Worth is a graduate student in History at the University of Western Australia. Following her Master's research at the University of Edinburgh on the banal and natural involvement of politics historically in the Olympic Movement, Ms. Worth's current research traces the relationship of politics and nationalism in Formula One (and it's motor racing predecessors).
Her presentation will analyze the 1930s through the lens of Grand Prix racing - and the aspirations to race at that level - in Germany and Great Britain, addressing how motor racing became increasingly connected to politics and nationalism, showcasing the complex relationship between Germany and Britain at the time. Ms. Worth's discussion will highlight the British and German perspectives and usages of motor racing in the 1930s as motor racing became entangled with the politics and rising tensions of the period. Speed became the marker of "civilization" in Europe - a power Germany possessed and one that Great Britain envied.
