Lewis Hamilton’s former trainer Anglela Cullen has spoken out on her exit Mercedes last year – revealing she initially retired from motorsports before linking up with IndyCar earlier this year
Cullen worked with Hamilton in F1 for seven years and was thought to be one of the key factors behind the British racer winning five titles in six years between 2015 and 2020, acting as his physiotherapist and one of his most trusted allies.
However, last year it was announced Cullen would be leaving Mercedes – before being spotted working with another racer at IndyCar in early 2024, her fellow New Zealander Marcus Armstrong.

Speaking out on her decision to leave F1 and move into Indycar, Cullen claimed she was initially going to retire from working in motorsports before finding a new lease of life with IndyCar.
When I left Formula One, I thought I was moving away from motorsports,” she told the IndyCar Series YouTube channel. I retired, actually. I took a year off last year and then I connected with Marcus Armstrong. I just worked with him on mental skills and things in the background. In the off season I was sponsored by SOS Hydration, which he was sponsored by too.
“[Armstrong] said ‘do you want to come to a race?’ I said ‘I’d love to come out’. IndyCar just hit me. It is so fun. I just fell in love with it. The racing’s incredible, the drivers are incredible. I arrived and I haven’t left.”
