The defending champion harnessing a "calming feeling" in Extreme E
Mikaela Ahlin-Kottulinsky, the reigning Extreme E champion, was honored by Nico Rosberg’s praise as the fastest woman in the world. Joining Rosberg X Racing team brought her the opportunity to showcase her talent in Extreme E, despite her limited off-road experience. After narrowly missing out on a title in her debut season, she approached the following season differently and secured the championship last December. Ahlin-Kottulinsky, with a background in circuit racing, aims not only to be the fastest woman but also the fastest driver overall. Her success in Extreme E highlights the importance of proper support and circumstances for female drivers in motorsport. Coming from a motorsport family, including her grandfather who conquered the Dakar Rally, she reflects on her journey and the impact of her triumph on her family legacy as she continues to excel in her racing career.
