Amelia Wyszomirska

Polish karting talent Amelia Wyszomirska is racing her way through the sport’s most competitive development programs, backed by both F1 Academy and the prestigious More Than Equal initiative—and she’s doing it while still in her early teens.

EARLY YEARS

Born October 23, 2011, in Poland, Amelia Wyszomirska entered the motorsport world at an age when most kids are still figuring out which sport they even like. Karting became her answer, and she committed early—choosing speed over safety, precision over predictability. Poland isn’t exactly known for churning out legions of female racers, which makes her path both lonelier and more impressive. She didn’t have a roster of local heroines to model herself after; she had to become one instead.

OTHER INTERESTS

Information about Wyszomirska’s life outside the cockpit remains scarce—a common reality for young drivers whose calendars are dominated by race weekends, simulator sessions, and travel. What’s clear is that karting doesn’t leave much room for hobbies when you’re competing internationally before you’re old enough to drive on public roads.

EARLY SUCCESS

Wyszomirska’s competitive karting career gained serious momentum when she began racing in high-level international series. By 2024, she was already turning heads in the FIA Karting Academy Trophy, competing against some of the best young talent from across the globe. At Val d’Argenton, she finished 18th in the final—a respectable result in a field stacked with future stars. Later that year at Kristianstad, she crossed the line in 28th, proving she could hold her own even on tougher weekends. These weren’t just participation trophies; these were hard-earned finishes in one of karting’s most elite proving grounds.

Her involvement in the Champions of the Future Academy Program further cemented her status as a driver to watch. The program, designed to increase female participation in karting, gave her access to F1 Academy-branded karts and suits—tangible support that leveled the playing field in a sport where funding can make or break a career. She raced alongside other standout female drivers like Katrina Ee Wing Thung and Vera Jurland, finishing just ahead of Ee at one event with a P20 result while Ee took P22. Small margins, massive stakes.

INSPIRATIONS

No public statements about Wyszomirska’s personal inspirations have surfaced, though it’s safe to assume she’s aware of the broader movement pushing female drivers toward Formula 1. With programs like F1 Academy and More Than Equal explicitly designed to create pathways for women in motorsport, she’s part of a generation that doesn’t just dream about breaking barriers—they expect to.

REPUTATION

Wyszomirska has built a reputation as a consistent competitor in international karting, holding her own in fields that regularly exceed 200 drivers from over 60 nations. She’s known for her tenacity in the OK and OK-Junior categories, where racecraft matters as much as raw speed. Her selection for the More Than Equal Driver Development Programme—a global initiative co-founded by former F1 driver David Coulthard—speaks volumes. The program doesn’t hand out spots based on potential alone; it’s data-driven, performance-focused, and ruthlessly selective. Being chosen means she’s not just fast—she’s scientifically, measurably elite.

The fact that she’s also backed by F1 Academy’s “Discover Your Drive” initiative puts her in rare company. These aren’t vanity programs; they’re strategic investments in the future of the sport. Wyszomirska is racing on merit, not novelty, and the paddock knows it.

FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

In 2025, Wyszomirska is competing in the FIA Karting European Championship across multiple categories, including OK-Junior at Rodby in August and OK at various rounds throughout the season. She’s also continuing her involvement with the More Than Equal programme, which provides bespoke driver development support both on and off the track. The goal is clear: transition from karting into single-seaters, and eventually, make a legitimate run at Formula 1. It’s a long road, and the odds are brutal, but she’s got the backing, the talent, and the results to make people believe it’s possible.
