Producer Sean Belby leads the viewer behind the scenes with De Silvestro during the race weekend in May in Brazil, weaving in an interview with her father, Pierluigi, who provided video footage of De Silvestro's early karting events, with a discussion of her being a role model as part of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) initiatives through her car's primary sponsor.
