She broke new ground as Saudi Arabia’s first female racing driver, but that was never going to be enough for ambitious Reema Juffali. Following a tough apprenticeship on the UK’s single-seater nursery slopes, the 31-year-old switched to GT racing in 2022 – and has since gone on to create something truly special in the form of her own racing team – Theeba Motorsport.

Juffali is pressing on to chase her dream of one day making it to Le Mans, and on her own terms, with her Theeba team. The pioneering spirit is compelling, especially as she appears to be surrounding herself with exactly the right people she’ll need to achieve her considerable goals.

Theeba Motorsport was originally born to compete in the International GT Open, but has since grown to become a regular on the grid of the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe, the highest global level of GT3 racing.
