SARAH BOVY Delivers Strong Sixth Place Finish in Goodwood Festival Shootout

July 13, 2025

• SARAH BOVY delivered an impressive performance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, piloting her Porsche 911 GT3 R to sixth place overall in the prestigious 20-car timed shootout. Her 49.50-second run up the challenging 1.86km hillclimb course put her ahead of several notable competitors including the Ford Mustang GTD and other high-profile entries.
• While the event was dominated by legendary Holden race cars and male drivers, BOVY’s solid sixth-place finish demonstrates the competitive edge that women bring to motorsport when given proper machinery and opportunity. Her time was just over a second behind fifth-place finisher Jake Hill’s Holden Commodore, proving she belonged in this elite field.
• The result highlights how women racers continue to make their mark at prestigious international events like Goodwood, where driving skill and precision matter more than politics or perception. BOVY’s performance in the 911 GT3 R adds another data point to the growing evidence that talent transcends gender in motorsport’s upper echelons.
