Iron Dames, the trailblazing all-female racing project, proudly announces its expanded 2025 programme, featuring an unprecedented line-up of 16 drivers competing across the globe. This milestone marks a significant evolution of the Iron Dames initiative, highlighting a reinforced commitment to nurturing talent, promoting diversity, and setting new standards of professionalism in motorsport.
 

The Iron Dames Young Talents Karting selection for 2024 has successfully concluded, showcasing a rigorous and inspiring program aimed at identifying and nurturing the next generation of female racing talent. The event, held at the Franciacorta Karting Track, brought together 20 of the world’s brightest young karting talents aged eight to 13, providing them with a unique platform to showcase their skills and potential across two action-packed days.

Founded in 2018 by Deborah Mayer, the Iron Dames project maintains its long-term vision and continues its rapid expansion. Introducing four new faces, a fresh generation of talent, exploring new disciplines, and bringing together increasingly competitive drivers, the 2024 line-up reflects the team’s commitment to growth and excellence.

On Saturday, 2 December, the Iron Dames were honoured to take part in the prestigious Porsche Night of Champions, in celebration of their remarkable achievements. This invitation is a tribute to the indelible mark left by the team in both the legend of Porsche and endurance racing history in 2023 and beyond.

The Iron Dames, competing this weekend at the 6 Hours of Fuji, took advantage of the Asian round of the FIA World Endurance Championship to engage with Japanese youth. Through two meetings during the run-up to the race weekend, Sarah Bovy, Rahel Frey, Michelle Gatting and Doriane Pin were keen to bring local kids and female racing talent behind the scenes of top-level motor racing, to share rewarding personal experiences and to offer valuable advice for their budding careers.
