Bianca Steiner

Bianca Steiner is an Austrian driver who has competed across Europe in almost all categories of single-seaters. 

She began racing in 2004 in Hungary, in the E-2000 Championship for 2000cc single-seaters. Despite being only fourteen years old at the time, she came fourth, driving a Formula Renault. 

She was ninth in 2005, and that year, she branched out into Formula Junior in Italy, driving for the Hungarian Szsasz team. At that time, Italian Formula Junior was a Formula Renault 1600 series. This arrangement continued in 2006, and she was tenth in the championship. As well as the Italian Junior series, she entered a Formula Renault Winter series. Never scared of ccs or horsepower, she even did a few Italian Formula 3000 races with the Coloni Rookies team. She was ninth and tenth at Misano, the closing rounds of the season.

For 2007, her programme was more focused, and she now had her own team. She drove to a disappointing 31st place in Italian Formula Renault, and made a few outings in the Eurocup at the Hungaroring. 

In 2008, she moved to the Northern Europe Championship, but did not fare much better. 

After four races back in the Italian championship in 2009, with a best finish of fourth, she appears to have left the series. She also did some hillclimbing in a Formula Nippon car in 2009. She had borrowed the car from a French driver called Lionel Regal, who died in 2010.

A long time on the sidelines followed while Bianca and her family saved money for a more powerful and better car.

In 2018 she made a comeback in the BOSS GP series for major single-seaters. She drove an ex-Timo Glock Dallara GP2 car in five rounds and scored one podium, a third at the Red Bull Ring. From the very beginning of the season she had been on the pace, finishing fourth in only her second race. She was eleventh in the championship. 

In the same car, she did the first two rounds of the 2019 Maxx Formula series at Zandvoort, finishing fourth and third. She had followed her Top Speed team-mate Veronika Cicha to the new championship.

Her 2020 plans were affected by the coronavirus crisis, but she did manage one outing in BOSS GP. Her GP2 car took her to a eighth place at Brno. She entered the first two 2021 BOSS rounds but had to withdraw, then missed the rest of the championship.

In 2022, she returned for the first four rounds, again competing in the Formula Car class in the GP2 car. Her best finish was fifth at the Red Bull Ring and she was eighth in the championship.

Laura Kraihamer

Laura Kraihamer is an Austrian driver who races a KTM X-Bow around Europe.

Her first season was 2012, and she was twelfth in the Rookie standings of the KTM X-Bow Battle series, with best finishes of sixth place. This is a one-make championship for KTM’s lightweight sportscar.

Despite running a full season in 2013, and maintaining her best finish, she was only 23rd in the X-Bow Battle.

In 2014, she was a much improved driver. She was second in the Sprint standings of the championship, with one win and four second places. Driving with Uwe Schmidt, she won the Endurance class of the X-Bow championship.

This year, she started to explore her options and tested cars for the FIA GT3 series and the VLN. She drove a BMW Z4 at the Nordschleife but it would not be for a couple of years that she actually competed there.

In 2015, she was part of a televised challenge, the "Race to 24", for drivers competing for a race seat in the Le Mans 24 Hours in 2016. Twenty-four aspiring racers took part. This was in addition to another season in the X-Bow; she was seventh in the Battle series and second in the Endurance championship, with Uwe Schmidt. They were racing as “Team Eat The Ball”.

2016 was another year with KTM, but in the European GT4 Championship. She was eighteenth in the Pro class, after a string of lower top-ten finishes. Her team-mate was Jamie Vandenbalck. She was racing for the Reiter Engineering team and they also entered her in three rounds of the X-Bow Battle series. She was second once and third once and was the best of six Reiter drivers.

She had another season in the European GT4 championship in 2017, driving the X-Bow for the Reiter team. Her car was the best-performing Reiter entry, with third places at the Red Bull Ring and the Nürburgring. She was thirteenth in the championship.

She was also thirteenth in the X-Bow Battle series. She helped her team to seventh in the Team standings.

In 2018, she contested another European GT4 Championship with Team True, another KTM/Reiter-affiliated team. She shared her car with Reinhard Kofler. Overall, she secured one eighth place, at Zolder. She was 30th and 26th at Brands Hatch and did not finish the first Zolder race. Her best results came at the Red Bull Ring in the Central European GR4 Cup: a second and third in the Pro-Am class.

Team True also entered a car in the 2018 Nürburgring 24 Hours. Laura was part of an all-female team in an X-Bow, with Naomi Schiff, Rahel Frey and Lena Strycek. They finished in 39th place, second in the Cup X class.

True entered the ADAC GT4 championship in 2020, with Laura and Reinhard Kofler as its driver pair. It was a season of highs and lows, with an outright win at Oschersleben the biggest highlight. Unreliability issues meant that Laura was unable to maintain her momentum, although she did manage a third at Zandvoort. She was tenth in the championship.

A different True team was ninth in the 24 Hours of Catalunya, but the X-Bow did not get to the end of the Nurburgring 24 Hours. Laura joined Carrie Schreiner in the Girls Only Volkswagen Golf for a round of the VLN mid-season and finished second in class.

2020 was a difficult season with very few championships running full programmes, but Laura managed to compete in most of the VLN. She did three rounds with the Girls Only team, finishing second in class at the first round. She also formed part of the female-only team for the Nurburgring 24 Hours. The car spent a lot of time in the pits and the race was stopped temporarily during the night because of heavy rain, but she helped the three-woman team to a class third.

When she wasn't with Girls Only, she represented KTM at the Nurburgring for the fourth round of the VLN. She and her team-mate Reinhard Kofler were second in the KTM X-Bow Cup.

Laura's X-Bow made a couple of appearances in the DTM Trophy at Lausitz, finishing 16th and 18th, before she moved on to the 24H Series double six-hour race at Monza. This time she was driving a KTM GTX concept car with Eike Angermayr and Stefan Rosina. They won the first race outright and had hopes of an overall win, but a series of problems dropped them to 16th in the second part, third in class.

Branching out, Laura accepted a couple of guest drives for the Engstler Hyundai team in the German TCR championship. She was sixth and eighth at Lausitz.

True Racing entered Laura into the whole DTM Trophy in 2021, driving the new X-Bow. It was not one of her strongest years, although better than her DTM debut. She had a best finish of ninth at the Red Bull Ring and a good finishing record, but ended the season in 20th.

Teichmann Racing ran her in the X-Bow in one NLS race and the Nurburgring 24 Hours. She did not finish the former, but was seventh in the Cup X class in the latter, 75th overall.

At the end of the season she tried something completely new, assisted by a new sponsor. She raced a Mercedes 300SL Gull Wing at the Goodwood Members' Meeting, finishing 23rd in the Moss Trophy.

A shorter season followed for Laura in 2022. She began the year with True Racing in the Fanatec GT2 European Series, in the X-Bow GT2 concept car. She and Kris Rosenberger were seventh and sixth at Imola, but a pair of DNFs in the next round at the Red Bull Ring signalled the end of their involvement.

Driving a different X-Bow, she entered the Nurburgring 24 Hours with the Teichmann team. Despite troubles during the night, they won the CupX class and were 58th overall.

After a hiatus in 2023, Laura and the X-Bow were back on track in 2024, contesting the Fanatec GT2 European Series, in the Pro-Am class. She and her True Racing team-mate, Hubert Trunkenpolz, were sixth in their class championship. The year started badly with two non-finishes, but by September, they were able to finish second at Monza. 

Laura is from a motorsport family; her brother Dominik also races sportscars.

She has an official FIA ranking of Silver.

Angelique Germann

Angelique and her team in 2016

Angelique Germann is a German driver who was racing in national-level Formula 3 in Europe. She was one of the front-runners in the CEZ series in 2017, after winning the German title in 2016.

Angelique’s father, Andreas, raced in Formula Three across Europe and continues to do so, therefore it was natural that she gravitated towards this style of competition. She began racing single-seaters in a serious way in 2014. That year, she raced in the mostly Eastern European-based Remus F3 Cup. Her car was a Dallara 305 Opel, run by her father’s racing team. Her best finishes were two ninth places, at Poznan, and another two top-tens at Salzburg.

She continued to race a Formula 3 car in 2015, entering two championships: the Central European Zone (CEZ) F3 series and the Remus F3 Cup, formerly Austrian F3. She used a Dallara F311 for both. Her F3 Cup season took in just over half of the championship. Her best result was a ninth place at Brno, at the end of the season. She was less successful in her part-season in the CEZ series, in which her best result was 17th at Brno. She did have the small consolation of finishing in front of her father, who was 18th.

As well as F3, both Angelique and Andreas had at least a guest appearance in the Italian F2 championship. Angelique was driving a Dallara F308 run by Franz Wöss Racing.

In 2016, she made something of a breakthrough in the sport. She entered the Central European Zone F3 championship and the Remus F3 Cup and performed well in both series. A highlight was winning a Cup race at Lausitz and finishing fifth in the championship. She was sixth in the CEZ championship, with a best finish of fifth. Her breakthrough race was the first CEZ round at Most, where she was seventh. Her fifth followed shortly afterwards. She was fifth in the Remus F3 Cup.

The German F3 Cup ran parallel with these two series. Despite a slightly shaky start at the Red Bull Ring, she won seven of the next ten races and took the championship comfortably. Her nearest rival was her father.

Her fourth season in Formula 3 was spent moving between the Remus Cup, the CEZ series and the German F3 Cup. Driving for Franz Wöss Racing again, she scored one win, at Hockenheim, and four second places, behind her team-mate Philipp Regensberger. Regensberger won the German championship and eleven out of the fourteen races.

She did not do quite as well in the European-based Remus series, although she held her own. Her best finish was a fourth place at Spa, and she was seventh overall. The CEZ championship seems to have run alongside the European one, as Angelique’s scores seem to be very similar.

She did not race in 2018. Towards the end of the year, she applied to take part in the all-female W Series in 2019, but had to drop out of the selection event with an injured foot.

Previously, she raced an NSU TT in historic events, from at least 2012, sometimes with her father.

Away from motorsport, she is a keen horsewoman.

Osmunde Dolischka

Osmunde Dolischka rose through the European single-seater ranks during the 1990s, after winning a regional karting title in 1994. She was one of a small group of women who came within touching distance of a Formula One career in the 1990s.

She was a latecomer to motor racing. Prior to 1994, she had competed in alpine skiing and was Austrian champion in the giant slalom. Even then, she showed signs of versatility and competed in water-skiing as well as the more traditional alpine form.

In 1995, she raced in the German Formula Ford championship, winning the last round, at Salzburg and finishing seventh overall. She was third in her state championship.

Formula Ford was followed by Formula Renault in 1996. She was second in her first race, at Zolder, and picked up another win part-way through the season.

Her progress faltered in 1997 when she moved again into Formula Opel. Her single season in the category was hit by a series of car problems and she was unable to finish higher than twelfth place.

In 1998, Osmunde got her career back on track. She raced in Formula 3 in central Europe, driving for the Fritz Kopp team. Her first races were at the A1-Ring and she was fifth and ninth. Two non-finishes at the Sachsenring came next, but then she managed a fourth at Most. Later in the season, she picked up another two fourth places at Most, having bounced back from another DNF. A second visit to the A1-Ring and a trip to Brno gave her two second places, the best of her season. She was third in the second race at Brno. Her last race of the season was at Hockenheim, where she was fifth. She was third in the Formula 3 Austria Cup, in her first F3 season.

Her form was impressive enough to attract the attention of Peter Sauber, who wanted to run her in Formula 3000. However, her biggest sponsor, Fujitsu-Siemens, pulled out in favour of her rival, Claudia Steffek, making this impossible. Osmunde and Claudia had fought it out on the track all year in F3, with Osmunde the more accomplished driver. Claudia was sixth in the championship and had a best finish of fourth. Fujitsu-Siemens opted for Claudia anyway, possibly due to her being younger and driving an older car. Her career stalled as suddenly as Osmunde’s did, a couple of years later.

1998 was her only season in Formula 3. She continued to compete in 1999, in the ADAC VW New Beetle Cup. Saloon cars were a new experience for her. She was eleventh in the championship.

That year, she also raced a Porsche 993 GT3 in endurance races. The results are not forthcoming. This marked the end of her circuit racing career. She had always had some money for her racing from family business interests, but without a sponsor, she was unable to continue at the level of which she was capable.

She attempted a comeback as a rally driver, in 2007, but crashed her VW Golf on her first event, and thought better of it. The accident happened on the first stage of the Ostarrichi Rally. It was one of a series of crashes on the stage and part of the rally was cancelled.

Osmunde is still involved in motorsport, running a kart hire firm and supporting her daughter’s karting career. Jorden was born in 2004 and has competed at a high level since the age of nine. She made her debut in cars in 2021.

Claudia Steffek

Claudia Steffek is an Austrian former Formula 3 driver who had a high profile during her short career in the late 1990s. She was a rival to her fellow Austrian, Osmunde Dolischka, and was touted as a Formula One hopeful.

After a short but successful karting career from the ages of thirteen to sixteen, she started racing Formula Ford at 17, in 1996. Her first season brought her first win, in the last race of the year, at Brno.

A second season in Formula Ford followed. She was second in the German international championship. No race results are forthcoming for this series. With some good performances in Formula Ford under her belt, Claudia was keen to progress up the ladder. The same year, she stepped up to Formula 3, in the Zone A European series, and was apparently third in the championship. Unfortunately, no results for that championship are forthcoming either.  She was driving for the Italian ADM team, who would continue to support her for the next two seasons.

Formula 3 was her main focus in 1998, and here, she starts to turn up on the bigger starting grids that are still available to consult. Claudia appears in the Austrian and Central European championships, driving an Alfa Romeo-engined Dallara F391, under the banner of her own Claudia Steffek Racing Team. She had a best finish of fourth in the Austrian championship, at Brno, in September. In addition to this, she was fifth on several occasions. She was running in the Austria Cup class for older cars, but finished above drivers in much more recent machinery more than once. Her final position was sixth in Austrian F3, and she was also fifth in the Austrian Racing Championship.

1999 was her best season yet. She had secured sponsorship from Fujitsu Siemens, from under the nose of her female opponent, Osmunde Dolischka. This caused some rancour, but did not affect Claudia’s on-track performances too much. This year, she had access to a newer car, a 1994 Dallara, and her year started promisingly with a fifth place at Spielberg. She was then fourth at Most, eighth twice at Brno, and in August, secured her first Formula 3 podium, a third at Most. This then improved to a second place, at Rijeka in Croatia. She would also score a third and fifth at this track. The final meeting, at Brno, gave her another third, and a fifth. Her consistency and speed meant that she was an impressive third in the Austrian F3 championship.

For the 2000 season, she set her sights on Italian Formula 3000. She was named as a driver for the Malta Racing* team in March, and stated that her aim was to be racing in Formula One by 2002. The team, however, pulled out before the season started, and she does not appear to have raced since. This does suggest that she lost more than sponsorship, and that her own money may have been taken. It is a shame that she did not get the chance to make a comeback, as she was still only twenty when her career finished.

*no connection is implied with other motorsport organisations with similar names.

Female Single-Seater Drivers Around the World: Austria

Corinna Kamper

There are now enough Austrian single-seater drivers to warrant their own post. Most of the drivers here have been split off from Female Single-Seater Drivers Around the World: Germany, Austria & Switzerland. Claudia Steffek, Bianca Steiner and Osmunde Dolischka have their own profiles.

Jorden Dolischka - Austrian former karter who races a Formula Renault in Europe. She has been most active in the Drexler AFR Pokal. In 2021, she scored three class victories at the REd Bull Ring and Salzburg, finishing fifth in the championship. Later, she tested an F4 car in the USA for W Series, but was not selected. Her Formula Renault debut was in 2020, when she was third at Brno. In 2022 and 2023, she raced karts as a senior, before entering the TCR Eastern Europe championship in 2024. Her car was a Honda Civic. It was a challenging season, and her best finish was an eighth place at Salzburg. She was thirteenth in the championship. She is the daughter of 1990s single-seater racer Osmunde Dolischka.

Corinna Kamper - Austrian racer who began her senior career in 2011, after some years of karting. That year, she used a Formula BMW in two different series: the Intersteps Championship in the UK, and Formula Lista Junior in continental Europe. She did best in Formula Lista, scoring a win in her maiden season, at Monza. She was sixth overall. Her best Intersteps finish was fourth, at Brands Hatch. She was tenth in that championship. In 2012, she moved up to the Northern Europe Formula Renault series, hoping to finish in the top third of the drivers’ table. It proved much harder going. Although she had a good finishing record, her best result was only a twelfth place, at Oschersleben. She was 41st overall. She continued in the series in 2013, driving for Fortec. Her best finishes were fourteenth places, at Spa and Zandvoort. She was 34th overall. In 2014, she raced in Formula Masters in Germany, at two of the meetings, at the Red Bull Ring and Oschersleben. Her best result was ninth, at the Red Bull Ring, which is her home track. She was 16th in the championship, driving in a single-driver team (HS Engineering). She announced her retirement from the track in 2015, but attempted a comeback via W Series in 2022. She was not selected.

Claudia Kreuzsaler - Austrian Formula Three driver in the 1990s. She entered the German, Austrian and French championships between 1991 and 1995, driving different cars for different teams. During this time, she did not manage a complete season with one team, perhaps due to sponsorship issues. Her best finish was third at Salzburg, in an Austrian race. She was less successful in Germany and France. Her highest overall position was twelfth, in the 1993 German series, although she had only driven in two races.

Female Rally Drivers After 1950: Africa

Stefanie Botha and Angela Shields

Women have featured in African rallies since they first appeared in the 1950s. Below are some short profiles. This post only covers stage rallying; rally raids such as the Dakar have their own page.
Susan Muwonge's profile is located in the Rally Winners post. Viviane Evina has her own post.
Kenyan drivers have their own post, here.

Irene “Leila” Blick (Mayanja) - Ugandan driver who came to prominence in 2013, after navigating for her husband, Omar Mayanja, since at least 2005. In 2013, she was tenth in her first event of the year, the Mbarara Rally, and won her class. Her car was a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo II, and her navigator was Faridah Ndagire. She retired from her next three rallies, including the Pearl of Africa event, but her fortunes changed when she switched to Toyota power. She was fifth in the Mukwano Independence Rally, driving a Run-X, and seventh in the Oilybia Mount Elgon Rally, in an Allex. The last event also gave her a class win. She competed quite extensively in Uganda in 2014, in the Allex. She finished in the top ten on three occasions: eighth in the Mbarara Rally, fourth in the Source of the Nile Rally, and sixth in the SMC Challenge Rally. She also entered the Milles Collines event in Rwanda, which was cancelled due to a fatal accident. She had another season in the Allex in 2015, and her best rally was the Mountains of the Moon event, in which she was twelfth. She was quite busy in 2016, in the Allex, rallying in both Uganda and Rwanda, although her finishing record was not brilliant. Her best result was an eleventh place in the Gorillas in the Mist Rally. She returned to the stages in a Subaru Impreza in 2018, with a best finish of fourteenth in the Jinja Challenge Rally. Irene is from a motorsport family: her parents both rallied as a team.

Stefanie Botha - second generation rally driver, originally from Namibia. She co-drove for her father Willem Hugo from the age of 15, then switched to driving at 18 in 2007, with Willem as navigator. In 2008, she drove in her regional championship in South Africa, using cars including a Subaru Impreza. For 2010, she was part of the RallyStar driving academy and moved up to the SA championship, scoring two class wins. Team Total signed her for 2011, driving a Toyota RunX in the SA championship. With Angela Shields, she ran well, although mechanical troubles caused many retirements. The situation has been the same in 2012. In 2013, she really stepped up, and was second in the Band Windhoek Azurite Tsumeb Rally. She also achieved thirds in the Total Tara and Walvis Bay rallies, in South Africa and Namibia. In 2014, she rallied a Subaru Impreza and a Toyota Corolla in Namibia, but did not finish any of her events. She tried again in the Subaru in 2015, in the Namibian championship, but still did not finish any of her events. After a long break, she came back to the Namibian championship in 2024, in an Impreza. She finished one rally, the Tara Rally, in seventh place. Away from rallying, Stefanie also competes in dirt-track circuit races.

Madeleine Britz - rallies a Volkswagen Golf in her native South Africa. She seems to have done her first major rallies in 2017, when she finished four of her seven events. The best of these for her was the Volkswagen Regional Rally, in which she was twelfth. In 2018, she did even better, scoring her first top-ten finish in the Trade Brand Natal Rally, the first round of the South African championship. She was tenth overall. 2019 was not quite as successful in the Polo, but she did manage one top-twenty finish, a 19th place in the Fountains Mall Rally. Her usual navigator is Maryka Britz or Wendy Mitchell.

Michelle Fortmann - Zimbabwean driver who has been rallying on and off since 2007. She was eleventh in her first event, the Dunlop Zimbabwe Challenge, in a Ford Escort. Her best result seems to have been eighth in the 2010 Zimbabwe Challenge Rally, in a Toyota Corolla. She has also driven a Subaru Impreza. Away from active competition, she works as a motorsport photographer.

Natasha Fourie - rallied a Toyota Tazz in South Africa in 2017. Her best event was the Bapsfontein Rally, in which she was seventh. She was also tenth in the Secunda Regional Rally. These were two of her six finishes that year. Her 2018 season included five rallies. She only finished one, the Sam 100 Rally, in eleventh place. In 2018, she also seemed to be co-driving for Johann Fourie, in another Toyota Tazz. She returned to driving in 2021, entering the Toyota Delmas Rally in the Tazz. She rolled. “Natasha Fourie” is a common name in South Africa, which does not help efforts to find out more about this one.

Megan Heine - South African driver, active since at least 2013. She usually drives Volkswagen cars. Between 2013 and 2015, she was a regular on South African rallies, particularly the Volkswagen Rally, which seems to be her local event. She was 18th in the 2013 Ocean Basket Rally in a Volkswagen Golf. Apart from driving, Megan co-drives occasionally, and in 2015, she piloted the support helicopter for some rounds of the South African championship.

Melissa Heyman - rallies Volkswagens in her native South Africa. Her first season looks to have been 2013, when she used a Golf. She scored her first top ten, a ninth place in the Peotr Club Rally. She entered club and national rallies, including the Volkswagen Rally which she did not finish. In 2014, she entered this event again and was fifteenth. The following year, she improved her best finish to sixth in the Algoa Steel Rally. A break from competition ensued after 2015, but she returned in 2017. The Golf was exchanged for a Polo. She was tenth in the Valley Bash and Fountains Mail Rallies. She continued with the Polo in 2018 and had a best finish of eleventh in the Stu Davidson & Sons Rally.

Queen Kalimpinya - Rwandan driver and co-driver who became the first Rwandan woman to finish a national rally. She first attempted the Rwanda Mountain Gorilla Rally in 2022, driving a Subaru Impreza, but did not finish. In 2023, she drove a GC8 model Impreza and finished third overall in the Huye Rally. The driver she sat beside in 2022, Fabrice Nyiridandi Yoto, did not finish. Together, they were second in the 2022 Nyirangarama Sprint Rally. In 2024, she was third in the Huye Rally, in an Impreza.

Sandra Labuscagne - rallied a Toyota Tazz in her native South Africa in 2017. She was co-driven by Jaco Jonk. During the season, she scored one top-ten finish, an eighth place in the Witklip Fram Bronkhorstspruit Rally. She was also eleventh in the Sam 100 Rally. In 2016, she tried her hand at cross-country rallying; as a navigator, she was selected by the FIA Women in Motorsport Commission for the Qatar Sealine Rally, with Cristina Gutierrez-Herrero as her driver. They were 24th. Sandra competes regularly in South African off-road rallies with her father, Coetzee.

Janine Lourens – rallies in South Africa, often sharing a car with her twin sister, Michelle. Rather unusually, the sisters share driving duties, alternating every season. In 2012, Janine took the wheel, and was 19^th in the Polokwane Rally. Her car was a Toyota Conquest. She also rallied in her regional championship, finishing thirteenth in the SA Earthworks All Tar Rally and seventh in the SAHRA Night Rally. She began her career at 17, in 2009, driving in rallysprints with her sister, navigated by their father. In 2010, she alternated driving duties with Michelle in regional rallies. Janine also navigates for Craig Trott. 2015 had her take the wheel again, with Michelle on the maps. She was sixth and seventh in the two-part Secunda Regional Rally, and sixth in the Motomid Rally. 

Michelle Lourens - South African driver who competes as part of a family team. Her twin sister, Janine, is her current navigator, and the pair have swapped seats several times in the past. They began rallying together, in 2009, at 17, in rallysprints. They did the Northern regional championship in South Africa in 2010, and took turns driving. After a quiet year, without significant sponsorship, in 2011, Janine took the wheel in 2012, again, contesting their regional championship. In 2013, with Michelle driving, they moved up to the South African championship, driving a Toyota Conquest, mainly. Her best result was fifth, in the East Rand Rally, and she also won her class in the Ford Dealer Rally, finishing 25th overall. In 2014, Michelle continued to drive in the South African championship, in an S2000-spec Toyota Tazz. She was seventh in the Hallspeed Rally, in South Africa. In 2015, she filled in as both driver and co-driver, to Janine. She drove a Toyota Run-X in the South African championship, but did not finish any of her events. Back in the driving seat in 2017, she entered the Sam 100 Rally, and was thirteenth overall.

Rose Lwakataka - Ugandan driver who has been rallying on and off since around 2008. She is the wife of former Ugandan champion Ponsiano Lwakataka, and shares his car, a Subaru Impreza, on occasion. She was seventh in the Pearl Rally in Uganda in 2008. As well as stage rallies, she competes in rallysprint events in Africa, and is promoted as a great rival to Susan Muwonge.

Laureen Marufu - Zimbabwean driver who has been competing since 2010. She was ninth in her first event, the Toyota Challenge Rally. The following year, she was sixth in the same event. The same year, she was also eighth in the Zambia International Rally, again driving a Toyota  Corolla. In 2012, she entered the Zimbabwe event again, but could not finish, driving the Toyota. She intends to contest more African rallies in the future.

Bianca Njeneza - Burundian driver who competes in her home rally championship. In 2018, she rallied a Peugeot 205 and a Toyota Curen. She retired from her first event, the Rally Ngozi, but was third in her second, the Burundi Rally. She was using the Toyota this time. In 2021 she entered the Rallye de l'Imbo in a Toyota Avensis, although it is not clear whether she finished. Bianca is Burundi’s first female rally driver, after being offered a car by a friend.

Britney du Piesanie - rallies a Volkswagen Golf in South Africa. She competes in the Algoa Rally Club championship and has been active since 2017. In March 2018, she scored her career-best result in the first round of this series, finishing thirteenth overall in the Stu Davidson & Sons Rally. Britney’s Golf is provided by the school where she is a sixth former. The car was donated to Daniel Pienaar School and it is the only school in the country that runs its own motorsport team.

Women in One-Make Series, Part III

Edina Bús with her SEAT Leon

The last list is of female drivers in one-make series across the rest of Europe, including the Mini Challenge. Italian drivers, Polish drivers, German drivers, Swiss drivers, Croatian drivers, Hungarian drivers and Swedish drivers can be found in their own posts. Michelle Gatting now has her own post, as do Alba Cano, Lilou Wadoux, Laia Sanz and Nathalie Maillet.

Ana Alvarez – raced in the Spanish SEAT Leon Supercopa, in 2006 and 2007 at least. In her first season, she did fifteen races, managing to score points once. She was 29^th in the championship. Her second season was only three races, and she was unable to challenge for honours. In between, in 2007, she raced the Leon in the Barcelona 24 Hours, and was tenth, as part of a four-driver team. She may well have entered the championship again in 2008, but the results are not forthcoming. She was certainly part of the Spanish endurance championship that year, and scored at least one third place.

Ana Barreras - races small cars in Spain and took part in the 2021 G Series ice racing championship in Andorra. She has been competing on circuits since 2017, mainly in one-make series and mostly in the Toyota Aygo Cup. She had a best finish of fourth at Jarama in 2020 and also came fourth in the non-championship Christmas Trophy, driving alongside her mother, former rally co-driver Ana Barbero. The two are racing in the Spanish Mini Challenge together in 2021. Although both of her parents competed in off-road events, Ana’s first attempt off-road was the 2021 G Series, driving a Ford Focus for Sandoval Racing. 

Isabelle Biela - Czech driver who raced in the Volkswagen Scirocco-R Cup in 2010, in Germany. Her best race result was thirteenth, at the Lausitzring. She was 17^th in the overall standings, and ninth in the Junior Cup. Although she has done some instruction, and has possibly been involved in classic rallying, with an Audi, she does not appear to have raced again after her debut season. Although she did have an accident at the Nürburgring, it did not seem to affect the rest of her season much, although she was not as close to the pace as she had been. Her father is sportscar racer, Frank Biela.

Caroline Candas - French driver who made her senior debut in 2021. She is a former French female karting champion who raced in the 2022 Peugeot 208 Cup, which was part of the TCA Light category in the French touring car championship. She was third in the TC Light class after two class wins at Nogaro. The following year, she was third the TC category, in a Peugeot 308. In 2024, she raced for the Rafa team in ADAC GT4, having won a female drivers' shootout for them in November 2023. She crashed heavily early in the season and sat the rest out. Her first steps in cars were some guest appearances in the 2021 Funyo Cup, scoring a class third at Albi. She is supported by La Filiere Endurance.

Tanja Dexters – Belgian model and media personality who raced in the Mini Cooper Challenge in 2004. She was not among the front-runners, and did not race in all of the rounds. She was 43^rd overall. Her entry was linked to her participation in that year’s Miss Belgian Beauty competition. She has not raced since.

Sabine Dubois - Belgian racer who won the 2003 VW Fun Cup 24 Hours with Fanny Duchateau and Sylvie Delcour. She has been a regular in the Fun Cup throughout the 2000s and for a while, was usually one of the front-runners. After 2006, she seems to have driven for different teams and has not been quite on the pace. The 2003 team returned to the Fun Cup 25 Hours in 2008, but did not win this time. 

Zihara Esteban - Spanish driver who began her senior career in the Spanish Clio Cup in 2011, after several years as a successful karter, both on the domestic and international scene. Her first season was rather up-and-down, with a lot of DNFs, but she managed one tenth place, at Catalunya, and was 24th overall, third in the Ladies’ standings. In 2012, she spent much of the year in karting again, but she also tried out the Euro Racecar NASCAR series, recently licensed from the States. She ran at the Loire and Valencia rounds, with a best finish of thirteenth, at Valencia. 2013 continued in the same way: karting, with four races in the Euro Racecar championship, at the beginning of the season. This time, she had two top-ten finishes, tenths at Nogaro and Dijon. In 2014, she did not do much circuit racing; she took part in the Maxi Endurance 32 Hour race at the Algarve track, and third in a SEAT Leon, and fourth in a Renault Clio, driving in two teams. Her main focus was rallying, in a Ford Fiesta R2. She did seven rallies, and her best result was 15th, in the Rallye del Bierzo. That year, she did her first WRC Rally, the Catalunya event. She was 46th. In 2015, she rallied a Peugeot 208 in Spain. Her only major rally was the Comunidad de Madrid RACE Rally, which she did not finish. She came back to the Spanish rally championship in 2017, driving a Peugeot 208. She was tenth in the Ciutat de Valls Rally. A break from competition followed, then she switched to circuit racing again, doing the Valencia rounds of the NASCAR Whelen Euroseries for DF1 Racing. In 2021, she travelled to Mexico and did her first truck races in the Mikel's Trucks series. She did the first five rounds of the championship and was never out of the top ten. Her best finish was third at San Luis Potosi and she was twelfth in the championship. Staying in Mexico, she contested the 2022 Copa TC2000, driving a Ford. She was second in her first race at Queretaro and scored several more top-ten finishes. Only DNFs dropped her to twelfth in the championship. Another TC2000 season in 2023 was more successful and she won three times, on the way to championship second. She did another season in TC2000 in 2024, but only appears to have raced a couple of times.

Louise Frost - Danish driver who has been racing in the DS3 Cup since 2016. In 2017, she scored her first win in the series, near the end of the season, at Jyllandsringen.

In 2020 she drove a Kia Mitjet in the Danish Endurance Championship and was second in her class, sharing with Sander Steffensen. It was back to TCR for 2021, driving a Honda Civic. Her best finishes were sixth places at Bellahoj and Aarhus and she was 15th overall.

Laura Hájková – Czech driver who raced in the Skoda Octavia Cup. She started in 2007, and had a solid, if unremarkable year, with a best finish of ninth, at Brno.

In 2007, she also did some racing in Germany, using the Octavia in some rounds of the Divinol Cup, at the Nürburgring. She does not appear to have raced since 2008.

Either that year or thereabouts, she won a Renault 5 Ladies' title, defeating another Danish driver called Eva Sorensen. It is unclear whether this was an actual all-female race, or a class championship within the main Renault 5 series. Little other information about Solveig is forthcoming. 

Cornelia Hütter - Austrian Alpine skier, who has done some motor racing. In 2011, when she was 19, she entered some rounds of the racing side of the Suzuki Swift Cup, and managed two sixth places at the Slovakiaring.

She was tenth in one race, and did not finish the other.
