In addition, four female drivers under 13 from Italy, Japan, Poland, and the UK were chosen for the More than Equal Driver Preparation Programme. These young talents show high potential but need further age-appropriate development. More Than Equal conducted talent scouting and selected successful candidates based on data, led by Programme Head Tom Stanton and driver coaches Sarah Moore and Jordan King. The program aims to address the gender gap in motorsport by providing specialized training methods for female drivers. The launch of the programme will bring the initial driving cohort to the Wurz Test and Training Center in Austria from May 16-18, 2024.”
