EARLY YEARS

Born on April 15, 2002, Beatriz’s passion for motorsports was ignited at just eight years old when she tried her younger brother’s minibike, a gift from her father who had experience in amateur riding.

In 2015, she secured third place in both the Femines Championship Catalan Velocidad and the Femines Championship Mediterraneo Velocidad riding a Honda CBR250.
