BIANCA BUSTAMANTE Teams With EA SPORTS for Music Collab After McLaren History

November 10, 2025

• BIANCA BUSTAMANTE continues making history as the first female driver in McLaren’s Driver Development Program, building on her breakthrough F1 Academy appearance and Forbes ’30 Under 30 Europe’ recognition. The Filipino racer’s journey from getting her first go-kart at age three to Netflix stardom proves that talent and persistence can break through motorsport’s traditional barriers, even when facing financial constraints and limited exposure in a male-dominated field.
• Her new partnership with GEN/EA SPORTS showcases exactly what we need more of – athletes being celebrated for their full identity beyond just lap times. BUSTAMANTE’s “Sunset” playlist collaboration with Spotify reflects her multicultural background and demonstrates how modern racers are redefining what it means to be a motorsport athlete, mixing vulnerability with speed and creativity with competition in ways that resonate far beyond the paddock.
• Most importantly, BUSTAMANTE isn’t just succeeding – she’s actively mentoring the next generation, telling young girls to “believe in your vision” and use every platform available to amplify their presence. Her message that mistakes don’t define you but your response does hits different coming from someone who’s actually navigating the financial realities and technical failures that come with chasing racing dreams while breaking new ground for women in the sport.
