GRRL! SUMMARY:
- KÜBRA DENİZCİ KESKİN swept Rally5 at both Rally di Roma Capitale and Barum Czech Rally Zlin in 2026, extending her podium streak at the Czech event to three consecutive years while competing against able-bodied drivers using hand controls.
- The clinical psychologist started racing four years ago and became the first woman with a disability to compete in FIA international rallying, using a steering wheel-mounted accelerator and joystick-operated clutch/brake system to control her car entirely by hand.
- Paralyzed at 16 from a spinal injury, KÜBRA rebuilt her life through two university degrees, an MBA, and a psychology master’s before finding rallying as an outlet for her childhood love of adrenaline and speed.
- She competes directly in open competition with no separate disability category, racing under Team Binance Türkiye colors in both the European Rally Championship and Turkish Rally Championship with husband and fellow driver Ahmet Keskin supporting her program.
UPCOMING:
- FIA European Rally Championship continues with remaining 2026 rounds
- Turkish Rally Championship season ongoing
