Formula Female, the initiative created by International Hockey star Nicci Daly is entering a team of seven young girl karting drivers into the Tillotson T4 World Cup event taking place this weekend at Whiteriver Karting centre outside Drogheda.
In partnership with author Laura Hannon, Formula Female will also be launching Daisy’s 1st Racecar, Laura’s 1st book in a series of STEM-inspired children’s books that will follow Daisy on her journey through Motorsport & STEM. #DreamLikeDaisy
Proceeds from the book will go to support children’s services at Cork University Hospital CUH Charity.
Tillotson developed the T4 series with a focus on making a more accessible and affordable entry into the sport. Since they launched in Ireland in 2019, Tillotson has expanded into 30 countries all over the world, introducing new members to the sport.
“This year we wanted to create a team that embodies the #DreamLikeDaisy spirit and promote the real-life girls of Motorsport that are exactly like the character of Daisy,” said Daly.
“We want to show the next generation what is possible and what they can achieve.”
Two of the drivers, who are all aged between 10 and 24 are having their first experience of competitive Karting.
The Go Girls Karting initiative was created by Formula Female with the support of Sport Ireland and Motorsport Ireland.
