LAURA VILLARS

In the high-speed, adrenaline-fueled world of motorsport, Laura Villars stands out for her audacious journey into the heart of racing—a domain where few dare to tread and even fewer excel. Swiss by origin, Laura’s story is a testament to the belief that passion, when pursued with unyielding determination, knows no bounds.

Unlike many of her peers, Laura did not follow the conventional path laid out for aspiring racers. She embarked on her racing career later than most, demonstrating that talent and dedication can challenge the status quo. Her background in business management and marketing, coupled with her entrepreneurial ventures in real estate and luxury goods, equipped her with a unique set of skills and perspectives. Yet, it was the race track that called to her, a call she answered with the same vigor and prowess she applied to every endeavor.

Laura’s initiation into motorsport was not just a personal victory but a bold statement against the traditional narratives of gender in racing. With each race, she disproves the outdated notion that motorsport is the sole preserve of men. Her late entry into the field, far from being a deterrent, has only fueled her drive to excel and prove her mettle. 

2024 marks a pivotal year for Laura as she prepares to showcase her talent on some of Europe’s most iconic circuits, from the historic turns of Monza to the challenging straights of Le Castellet. Joining the esteemed Ferrari Challenge, Laura is not just racing for the podium but for a cause—inspiring women to pursue their dreams, challenge societal expectations, and succeed in arenas once deemed unreachable.

Laura Villars is more than a racing driver; she is a beacon of inspiration, a testament to the power of perseverance, and a symbol of change in a sport undergoing a profound transformation. As she gears up for a season defined by potential and promise, Laura remains committed to her path, ready to accelerate into history and leave a lasting legacy on and off the track.
