INVITATION FOLLOWING STRONG PERFORMANCES

For talented young drivers, the championship represents an important stepping stone towards the highest levels of international motorsport. Companies from the region, including Rainbow Growers, are also helping to support her development.

Alongside this step into a more competitive international field, she will continue racing in the Nordic4 Championship, where she will build on her Formula 4 experience throughout the remainder of the season. She can continue to rely on the support of her partners, including ProTech Westland, who are helping to make her progress towards the international stage possible.
