FULL BIO: Angelina Proenca
Angelina Proenca is a rising French racing driver from Perpignan who burst onto the open-wheel scene in 2025 as one of six women competing in the French F4 Championship. At just 15 years old, she’s already making her mark in a sport where female representation remains frustratingly rare.
EARLY YEARS
Born on June 6, 2009, in Perpignan, a sun-soaked city in southern France’s Pyrénées-Orientales region, Angelina’s path to racing remains largely under wraps. What we do know is that by 2025, she had somehow navigated her way into one of Europe’s most competitive junior formulas—no small feat for a teenager from a region better known for its Mediterranean beaches than its racing pedigree. Her journey from the quiet streets of Perpignan to the roar of F4 engines suggests a family willing to support big dreams, though the details of that support system remain private.
OTHER INTERESTS
Like many young racers focused intensely on their craft, Angelina keeps her non-racing interests close to the vest. At 15, she’s presumably balancing the demands of education with her racing commitments, though she hasn’t shared details about academic pursuits or hobbies outside the cockpit.
EARLY SUCCESS
Angelina’s racing debut came in spectacular fashion—if you consider battling tricky weather conditions at Nogaro in April 2025 spectacular. Her first race weekend in French F4 was, in her own words, “full of learning” as changing weather conditions threw curveballs at the entire field. While podiums and wins haven’t come yet, she’s shown the grit to stick with it through the inevitable growing pains of junior formula racing. By mid-2025, she had completed 12 race starts, gaining valuable experience in one of Europe’s most competitive breeding grounds for future stars.
NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS
- 2025: Became one of only six female drivers competing in French F4 Championship.
- 2025: Completed debut season in French F4 with 12 race starts across prestigious circuits including Nogaro, Magny-Cours, Spa-Francorchamps, and Le Mans.
INSPIRATIONS
Angelina has kept her racing heroes and inspirations private, focusing instead on the work at hand rather than public declarations about who motivates her. In a sport where young drivers often name-drop their idols, her discretion suggests someone more interested in creating her own path than following in someone else’s tire tracks.
REPUTATION
Within the tight-knit French F4 paddock, Angelina is viewed as part of a promising group making “great strides” alongside fellow female competitors Sofia Zanfari and Héloïse Goldberg. While her results haven’t yet translated into trophies—she finished 26th of 30 drivers at the Magny-Cours event—industry observers note her steady development and willingness to learn. Her approach to racing appears refreshingly grounded; rather than making bold predictions, she focuses on the fundamentals and embraces each weekend as a chance to improve.
FUTURE GOALS/PLANS
As she continues her 2025 French F4 campaign with races remaining at Lédenon and Le Mans, Angelina appears focused on the immediate task of extracting every lesson from her rookie season. Her measured approach suggests someone building for the long term rather than seeking quick headlines—a smart strategy in a sport that rewards patience and persistence as much as pure speed.
