GRRL! SUMMARY:
- SABRE COOK and MADELINE STEWART return as proven veterans to Porsche Carrera Cup North America, both having scored multiple top-ten finishes last season and arriving with heightened expectations. They’re joined by rookie ASHLEY FREIBERG, who’s climbed the single-make pyramid to earn her spot in the premier series through the Mobil 1 Female Driver Program.
- The Sprint Challenge season already kicked off strong at Sebring with LONI UNSER and ANNA CECCHI both claiming podium spots in each Cayman Pro-Am class race, proving the depth of talent across Porsche’s female driver development pipeline. THERESE LAHLOUH and ERIKA HOFFMANN also competed, showing the program’s expanding reach.
- Porsche’s commitment goes beyond lip service – the Female Driver Program covers 50% of entry fees, provides free Yokohama tires to top-finishing women each round, and offers specialized workshops for career development. As FREIBERG notes, having “big brands like Mobil 1 and Porsche and Yokohama come together” creates meaningful support that actually gets drivers on grid rather than just talking about inclusion.
