Off the circuit I'm a woman, on it I'm a rider - Ana Carrasco

Not by the Playbook

Available for over a year

Ana Carrasco is only 21 years old but she's already made sporting history by becoming the first woman ever to win a motorbike world title. The Spaniard sealed championship victory by a single point after finishing 13th in the final race of the World Supersport 300 season in France. While she hopes more women will be encouraged to get involved in motorsports, she insists being a good rider is always the starting point...
