The British Women Racing Drivers Club (BWRDC) was founded in 1962 to support women in all disciplines of motorsport. They have now launched a new program called “Into Speed” to introduce women to motorsport competition starting in March. The program aims to provide a clear and friendly pathway for women of all ages, with guidance from BWRDC members and expert tutors. Participants will learn about timing, safety, and driving styles as they progress through the stages of the program. The main focus of the program is hillclimbing, where individuals compete against the clock on short courses in affordable road cars in the UK. The program includes three stages, including a tuition day, one-on-one tuition, and the opportunity to enter competitive events with the support of BWRDC mentors. Participants will also be exposed to other roles in motorsport such as engineering and media roles. The BWRDC is working with Motorsport UK to help women acquire a racing license and increase female participation in the sport.
