10-Year-Old Atiqa to Become the First Indian Female to Race in World Series Karting
A dream becomes a reality: a young karting star is heading to a new level of competition!
Young 10-year-old karting sensation from India, Atiqa Mir, will become the first female from India to compete in the World Series Karting (WSK) Championship. She has signed a full-season contract with 29-time champions Babyrace after impressive results in testing sessions in Italy. Atiqa will be the only female in the Mini class, competing against over 60 karts.
Atiqa will make her debut in three WSK series:
- The Super Master
- Euro Series
- Final Cup
The first round of the Super Master Series will take place this weekend.
Like Max Verstappen, she hails from a racing family: her father, Asif Nazir, is India’s first National Karting Champion and Formula Asia Vice Champion.
