GRRL! SUMMARY:

ASHLEY FREIBERG brings serious firepower to AE Victory Racing for the remainder of 2025, and we’re here for it. The first woman to win outright in Pirelli World Challenge plus multiple IMSA podiums? That’s the kind of proven pace that makes teams dangerous. Her Skip Barber background and versatility across GT, prototype, and endurance racing gives AEVR exactly the veteran leadership they need as they continue building something special in women’s motorsports.
ALANA CARTER is showing us what sustainable development looks like when done right. After winning AE Victory’s driver shootout and developing with the team all year, she’s now expanding into Radical Academy’s Emzone Radical Cup Canada series at Toronto. Her own words tell the story: “insanely competitive” getting back in the Radical seat thanks to everything she learned in the Supra. This is how you build careers, not just give one-off opportunities.
The technical side tells an equally compelling story with LAURA HAYES transitioning from driver to coaching and strategy roles at Road Atlanta, while JENNEA KATIC steps up to Race Engineer and Strategist. EMILY DAVES joins as Data Engineer, creating a support structure that’s refreshingly female-forward. When Hayes says the team dynamic is “something special,” you believe it – this isn’t tokenism, it’s intentional culture building that develops talent across every aspect of the sport.
