Juju Noda is a pioneering Japanese motorsport racer who broke barriers as the first Japanese woman to compete in the Super Formula Championship, balancing extraordinary early success with the challenges of being a teenage competitor in elite racing.

EARLY YEARS

Born in 2006, Juju’s racing journey began remarkably early when her father Hideki Noda, a former F1 and IndyCar driver, gifted her a kart on her third birthday. By age four, she was living near Okayama International Circuit where her father’s NODA Racing Academy was based, immersing her in the racing world. Her father’s guidance was instrumental, employing a self-discovery approach that helped develop her resilience and technical skills. By nine years old, Juju had already graduated to formula cars, and at 14, she moved to Denmark to compete internationally, gaining valuable experience navigating different racing environments.

EARLY SUCCESS

Juju’s competitive racing career officially began in 2019 with the Lucas Oil Winter Race Series where she finished 14th overall. Her debut in the Formula 4 Danish Championship in 2020 with her family team, Noda Racing, showcased her natural talent with an impressive race win in her first appearance and four additional podium finishes. Despite facing technical issues in her second F4 Danish season in 2021, she still managed to secure a respectable 7th place in the championship. Her breakthrough moment came in 2023 at age 17, when she made history as the first female driver to win a race in the Euroformula Open series, firmly establishing herself as a rising star in international motorsport.

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS

  • 2024: Became the first Japanese woman to compete in the Super Formula Championship with TGM Grand Prix.
  • 2023: Won the F2000 Italian Formula Trophy, becoming the first female driver to capture an overall season title.
  • 2023: Secured a win in the Euroformula Open Championship as the first female driver to do so.
  • 2023: Finished second in the Drexler-Automotive Formula 3 Cup with Noda Racing.
  • 2022: Competed in the W Series, finishing 14th in the championship.
  • 2020: Won a race in her F4 Danish Championship debut season, finishing 6th overall.

REPUTATION

At just 18 years old, Juju has earned recognition as a motorsport prodigy with exceptional potential. Her smooth and mistake-free driving during the 2023 Super Formula Preseason and Rookie Test at Suzuka impressed critics who had initially been skeptical about her readiness for top-tier competition. Making history as both the first Japanese female driver in Super Formula and the youngest ever competitor in the series has cemented her status as a pioneering figure for women in Japanese motorsport. Despite facing scrutiny due to her age and gender in a male-dominated sport, her demonstrated skill and determination have begun silencing doubters across the racing community.

FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

For the 2025 racing season, Juju will drive for the newly formed “HAZAMA ANDO Triple Tree Racing” team in Super Formula, with her father Hideki serving as team director. Carrying number 10, which she previously used in competitions like Euroformula Open and W Series, she aims to improve upon her rookie season results. While no specific long-term championship targets have been explicitly stated, her father has mentioned Formula E as a potential career path as she continues to develop in the highly competitive world of motorsport.
