Roberta Cristi
Director of Operations
From Monterey, California I found my passion for motorsports at an early age after attending a sportcar race at Laguna Seca.
Unsure of how I wanted to get into the industry, I started by working at a custom motorcycle shop in high school. This led me to several internships at Laguna Seca and also overseeing the F&B for the US Open of Surfing where I found my love for operations and logistics.
After I graduated from CSU Chico I got a job at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca managing the F&B which grew into managing the suppliers and coordinating all of the buildouts across the facility. I got an opportunity to move to Austin, Texas and work with the American Rallycross Series in addition to working at Circuit of the Americas where I was able to gain experience with high-caliber events such as Formula 1 and MotoGP.
During the pandemic, I was fortunate to get an opportunity at an elevated role at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca leading me to move back to Monterey.
I am very thankful to be in the Director position and to be around family again!
