Justine Pedemonte is a French motorcycle racer who made history in 2022 as the first woman to win a Supersport 300 race in the French Superbike Championship, proving that grit and skill matter more than gender on the track.

EARLY YEARS

Born on January 22, 2007, in Nice, France, Justine started racing at an astonishingly young age. By 11, she was already tearing up circuits with the kind of determination that made grown men take notice. In 2018, she claimed the 25 Power Occitanie Championship title, marking her arrival as a serious competitor. The following year, at just 12 years old, she entered the Italian Velocità Championship (CIV) Ohvale 160 series—a proving ground for young riders aboard Italian-made Ohvale GP-0 160 bikes, known for handling that mimics full-size racing machines. Starting that young in a foreign championship? That takes guts.

She didn’t just compete—she won, becoming the first woman ever to take victory in the series. It was a watershed moment, the kind that gets written into record books and remembered for generations. That same year, she competed in the Yamaha R3 bLU cRU Cup, gaining valuable experience against a competitive field. Her gutsy riding style and fearless overtakes quickly earned her a reputation as someone who wouldn’t back down from a fight on track.

REPUTATION

Pedemonte has built a name for herself as a fierce competitor who refuses to be defined by her gender. Her historic 2022 win wasn’t a fluke—it was backed by consistent performances and an ability to battle wheel-to-wheel with anyone. Supported by GMT94, one of France’s most respected racing teams, she’s known for making bold moves on track and holding her ground in tight racing situations. Despite setbacks—including a collarbone injury in 2023—she’s bounced back time and again. In 2024, racing in the ultra-competitive FSBK Supersport 600 series as a rookie, she proved she could handle bigger, faster bikes and still fight for podiums. Her second victory of the 2024 season at Pau, where she started seventh and carved her way to the top, showcased her racecraft and mental toughness. By 2025, she was earning wildcard entries into the WorldWCR, where she immediately ran in the top ten at her home round in Magny-Cours, battling international competition on a Yamaha YZF-R7.

FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

As of 2025, Pedemonte continues to race with the MDS team in the WorldWCR series, gaining international experience and refining her skills against some of the best female racers in the world. Her trajectory suggests she’s aiming to establish herself as a consistent frontrunner on the world stage, with ambitions that likely extend beyond wildcards to a full-season campaign in global competition.
