EARLY YEARS
Born around 2004-2005, Clara’s path to professional motorsport began to take shape in 2024 when she embarked on an intensive testing program in France.

EARLY SUCCESS
Clara’s transition from testing to competition proved remarkably smooth. After completing extensive preparation with Feed Racing in France during 2024 and early 2025, she joined Kichcha’s Kings Bengaluru for her debut season in the Indian FIA Formula 4 Championship. Her first qualifying session at Kari Motor Speedway resulted in a strong 9th place grid position with a lap time of 1:08.608, immediately marking her as the fastest among the female drivers in testing. This early pace translated into consistent top-ten finishes throughout her rookie campaign, with her breakthrough performance coming at Madras International Circuit where she secured her first top-five finish.
