S'pore's only female pro racer says she's seen as a driver 1st, and woman 2nd



Singapore's only professional female car racer got into karting and racing at 30.

And just two years on, Miss Claire Jedrek got second place at the Malaysian Grand Prix held in March this year.

As someone who is experienced in the regional racing scene, she tells The New Paper on Sunday what she has learnt over the years.

The 32-year-old says: "Anyone can be taught to race, but to become good at it requires the person to boldly go the extra mile."

I'll have to search for some footage of her in a race.

Thanks
