GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • AMNA AL QUBAISI made history as the first woman to compete in the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia, campaigning the 2026 season with Team Jebsen in the 911 GT3 Cup.
  • The 26-year-old Emirati set a measured goal for her debut season: learn the car, discover the circuits, and build experience rather than chase immediate results.
  • AMNA opened her campaign in Shanghai last March, completing a full season that tested her adaptability across the series’ varied Asia-Pacific circuit roster.
  • Time magazine named AL QUBAISI one of the most influential people in world sport in 2026, underlining her cultural impact beyond the pit lane.
  • Motorsport runs in the family: her father Khaled Al Qubaisi was the first Emirati to race at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, giving her story a powerful dynastic dimension.
