NEW FORMULA WOMAN SPONSOR TEAM
After successfully recruiting an internal sponsorship team, we now have a team of six interns from diverse regions including North America, UK, Africa, and Australia.
This talented team will be focused on conducting research, creating presentations, and acquiring sponsors for our GT Cup Team and Nations Cup competition. Collaborating with our marketing agency Avantgarde in Dubai, they will be closely monitored and documented on their journey to attract sponsors during these challenging times.
As they work alongside our GT Cup team and drivers, their progress and achievements will be featured, akin to the popular TV show "The Apprentice".
At the end of the journey, one exceptional intern will be awarded a full-time position with Formula Woman.
PROFILE - ELIZA SEVILLE
As a teenager, I stumbled upon drifting and racing videos on YouTube and discovered my passion for motorsport. This interest grew while I was studying my A-levels and attending a drifting competition with my dad at Anglesey. I knew I wanted to be involved in motorsport, which led me to gain qualifications at The National College for Motorsport.
At 18 years old, I started my career as a motorsport mechanic with Aston Martin racing privateer, TF Sport, where I traveled the world running an Aston Martin GTE Vantage in European Le Mans series. Later, I became self-employed and contracted for various race teams, gaining experience in historic F1, Le Mans prototypes, GT, Ferrari Challenge, and single-seaters.
Recently, I took the role as the No.1 Mechanic and test pilot at Roborace, where I worked on building their autonomous electric LMP3 cars. During my time there, I had the opportunity to both drive and be driven in the autonomous LMP3 Ginetta. .
Driving has always been one of my passions ever since I passed my driving test, but due to lack of time and money, it has meant this passion has taken a backseat.
However, after some test sessions in the prototypes and warming up the car for Lucas Di Grassi in the Human vs AI challenge, I knew I had to give it a go.
I entered the 2021 Formula Woman competition and reached the final ten after setting the fastest time at Croft.
Encouraged by the positive feedback, I entered the 2022 Formula Woman competition and became one of the winners.
My debut race will be this weekend in the Mazda Supercup at Croft, and I plan to participate in a few more Supercup rounds this year to prepare for GT Cup with Formula Woman. Additionally, I will be sim racing with Kimura Performance sim racing team for the 2023 season to enhance my driving skills.

Secondly, if you have already secured a personal sponsor, please inform Avantgarde, as they have been assigned to manage our sponsors and yours during the event.

PROFILE - ALANA CARTER
At a young age, my passion for motorsports was ignited by my dad's lifelong involvement in racing, which meant I spent a significant amount of time at the racetrack during my formative years. My own racing career began on the oval track, where I achieved great success with numerous podium finishes and a season championship.
Driving on a dirt oval track, with minimal traction and constantly having to control a powerful 620hp late model car, was both thrilling and immensely rewarding when everything came together. This experience helped me develop the skills necessary for success in other areas of racing.
Upon completing my degree, I felt compelled to pursue my passion for motorsports beyond building my own race car and competing in a handful of local races each summer. As a result, I made the decision to relocate to Toronto, where I discovered my dream job at a private car club named RCLUB. I was fortunate to be surrounded by supportive individuals who encouraged me to chase my dream.
When I found out about Formula Woman, I was eager to apply and got to work immediately by attending as many track days as possible, practicing on simulators, and hiring a personal trainer to improve my physical fitness. Thanks to their support, I was selected to join the team, and since then, I've been working tirelessly to continue improving my skills.
I'm excited to be competing in the GT Cup with my team this year. In the meantime, I'll also be racing the Scalar Performance SCR1, the first fully electric touring car in North America, and participating in endurance racing with my RCLUB team in our Nissan 350z. My first race is this weekend, and I can't wait to see what this season has in store for me.

Louise Goodman recently conducted a media training session at iZone. This type of training is a critical aspect of any motorsport career, and those who participated in the session gained a newfound sense of confidence and were thoroughly impressed with the experience.

JAGUAR PROJECT 8 RACE PLANS
This week, we had the opportunity to test three women who share a strong passion for racing, namely Lynsey Jones and Emma Vennard from England and Maral Ghazarian from Switzerland, using one of our Jaguar Project 8 race cars.
The testing began with orientation sessions in a Trade Centre BMW, followed by a morning session at the dry Donington track under the expert guidance of Katie Ross. In the afternoon, the track became drenched in rain, offering the ladies an experience of the Jaguar Project 8's 600 horsepower under challenging conditions.
All three performed exceptionally well, demonstrating a level of proficiency that will serve them well in racing.
Formula Woman is currently developing a lightweight Project 8 with 700 horsepower for racing and we will soon announce the drivers, location, and date of the upcoming testing and racing events.

Formula Woman Newsletter - 23rd March 2023
For those who attended last year's finals, you are already familiar with Wealth Club Coin (WCC), who sponsored both the assessments and the finals, and presented winners Eliza Seville and Alana Carter with Wealth Club Coins as part of their prize.
In this dizzying world of cryptocurrency, WCC is one of the few coin developers who are not only growing fast but also being creative in their promotions, with music videos, international ambassadors, fashion shows, and of course, Formula Woman. Similar to Formula Woman, WCC is present in countries around the globe and is huge in South America, where cryptocurrency is working really well.
It's definitely worth our community members checking out how WCC works and considering becoming involved, as well as investing in this fast-growing cryptocurrency. For more details, click the button below:
This week, Formula Woman Founder Graeme Glew signed a deal in Dubai with global marketing agency AVANTGARDE to promote The Formula Woman Nations Cup in the Middle East. Originally, the plan was to run the event in November, but it has now been agreed with Dubai Autodrome to run the event from 1st to 3rd March 2024. For more about AVANTGARDE, click below:
Last year, 40+ Formula Woman competitors from 24 countries were selected at Bedford Autodrome to compete in the Nations Cup event. The ladies are now preparing, and most of them are coming back to the UK to undertake a five-day intensive training camp in the summer. The camp will include a lot of on-track coaching in a variety of race cars, as well as simulator, fitness, kart, and mind coaching. For more details;
Katie@f1.co.uk
The new Formula Woman Academy has got off to a great start, and now we are opening up the academy to Nations Cup competitors who are planning to attend one of the four scheduled training camps in the summer.
With the ever-changing world we live in, many people are experiencing a cost of living increase and a lot of negative media hype to contend with. This is one reason why we have introduced the Formula Woman Academy in the UK and soon to be in North America.
Using our race coin concept, payment for driver training and coaching can be spread over the year, and in some cases, our members have secured sponsors to pay for their training using this mechanism. Formula Woman simply invoices the sponsor, and they are then able to claim back the tax element. For more details on the academy, please contact;

FORMULA WOMAN ACADEMY
The launch of the new Formula Woman Academy and the Junior Academy (12 to 17 year olds) at Autosport International, has clearly been what our members have been looking for.

There are also training programmes in North America and Australia.

Formula Woman Newsletter - 22nd December 2022
This is our last newsletter of 2022 and believe it or not it is our 100th! To round off the year, here is a pictoral review of some of the things we all got up to in 2022.
From all of us at Formula Woman, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
See you in 2023 for some more motorsport action!
What a year we have had, 2022 started with the finals of last year's competition in which we used the fabulous Vauxhall Corsa-e, and ran the finals at PFI kart circuit.
Last year's Shoot Out took place in Sweden where we announced our four winners, who all went on to compete in the GT Cup Championship driving the Trade Centre sponsored McLaren 570s GT4 race cars.
Not only did the ladies meet Mark Bailey, founder of The Trade Centre Group, at the opening of their new Car Supermarket in Small Heath, Birmingham, but also at Donington they met 1996 F1 World Champion Damon Hill.
We have received tremendous support from both Trade Centre UK and Trade Centre Wales and their two training BMWs have been seen throughout the year at most of our events.
We also welcomed Alicia Barrett to our race team for 2023 and the Jaguar Project 8 got a make over at the Sleeping With Art event.
The year culminated with the 2022 Formula Woman Competition taking place at Bedford Autodrome in the new Vauxhall Astra, sponsored by Wealth Club Coin.
We crowned our new competition winners Eliza Seville (England) and Alana Carter (Canada) who will join our existing team in 2023.
Formula Woman Newsletter - 15th December 2022
As 2022 draws to a close and Christmas is only ten days away, there is still a lot going on behind the scenes. One fantastic opportunity not to be missed is Ice Driving with dates available in February, but be quick!
If you are a new member there is an important news item you should read about your packs, and as usual further information on opportunities on how you can make the most of the Formula Woman Community.
RECENT ASSESSMENTS AND COMPETITION FINALS
Many of you who recently attended an assessment at Bedford and those who made it through to the finals, are keen to receive your results and feedback. Please bear with us, we are compiling the results and intend to send everyone their scores on each test they took part in.
2022/23 WINNERS
For those of you who don’t know already, our two winners from this year’s competition are Eliza Seville from England and Alana Carter from Canada. They will both start intensive training in the New Year and compete in several club races to prepare them both for races in GT Cup at the end of 2023

MEMBER PACKS
If you are a new member and have not received your welcome pack we need to know.
Unfortunately, since the UK left the EU (Brexit) many of our welcome packs are being returned due to customs issues and excess duty being applied to deliveries. In addition to this, the current postal strike in the UK has compounded the situation
