Gabriela Jílková is a Czech motorsports racer who has made her mark across various racing disciplines, from karting to GT4 championships and Formula E development.

EARLY YEARS

Born on April 2, 1995, Gabriela began her racing journey at just 5 years old when she started karting near her childhood home in Prague. Though details about her family support system remain limited, her early introduction to motorsports set the foundation for her future career.

EARLY SUCCESS

Jílková transitioned to single-seaters at 18, achieving a 9th place finish at the Hungaroring in Formula Renault and 6th place in the 2014 ROK Senior Karting World Final. She secured two third-place finishes in the Superlight section of the 2013 Supercar Challenge at Assen driving a Czechian Praga-Renault. After overcoming a serious crash at the Red Bull Ring that left her with five vertebrae injuries and months of immobilization, Gabriela’s breakthrough came in 2021 when she won the GT Winter Series Championship, dominating the circuits at Portimao.

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS

2022: Multiple podium finishes in ADAC GT4 Germany series, including third place at Oschersleben and second place at Zandvoort[1].
2022: Podium finish in the Indian Racing League at Hyderabad[2].
2023: Completed first LMP3 racing season in Prototype Cup Germany, finishing fourth at Hockenheim and achieving third place and a win at Circuit Zandvoort[5].
2024: Named Driver of the Day with a podium finish at Madras in the Indian Racing League[2].
2024: Clinched the Indian Racing League championship title with Goa Aces JA Racing, delivering a 1-2 finish in the season finale at Kari Motor Speedway[4].
2024: Finished sixth in the GT4 European Series Pro-Am class with TGR Team Matmut Évolution[1].

REPUTATION

Jílková has built a reputation for versatility and resilience across multiple racing disciplines. Her career spans 81 starts with 21 podiums and 3 wins, showcasing consistent performance despite early challenges. In 2023, she made history as the first female since 2020 to participate in Formula E’s pre-season rookie test with TAG Heuer Porsche. Her ability to excel in different environments—from GT4 to prototype racing—has established her as a respected competitor and role model in motorsports, breaking stereotypes in a male-dominated industry.

FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

Gabriela’s future centers around her development role with TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team, where she will continue supporting drivers Pascal Wehrlein and António Félix da Costa. While her long-term aspirations aren’t explicitly stated, her simulator work with Porsche suggests potential advancement in Formula E, building on her foundation in LMP3 and GT4 racing to pursue further success in electric racing and other motorsport disciplines.
