In this episode of the Women of Inspiration™ Podcast, we speak with Tatiana Calderon | Racing Driver
TATIANA CALDERÓN is a woman who breaks the mould. At the age of just nine, she found her passion in the world of motorsport and decided to adopt it as her lifestyle and pursue a professional career as a racing driver.
Moving from her native Colombia to Europe in order to race her way up through the single-seater ladder with the dream of reaching the pinnacle of motorsport, Tatiana raced in the F1 support GP3 Series from 2016 to 2018, becoming the most successful woman in the history of the championship.
In 2018 Tatiana came closer to reaching her dream, as she was promoted as Alfa Romeo Formula 1 Test Driver– combining her appearances in the F1 paddock with her racing programme in the GP3 Series.
In October 2018, the Colombian driver sat behind the wheel of a contemporary Formula One car at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City, for the first time in her career. She quickly adapted to the demands of driving at the highest level in motorsport and demonstrated her focus and skills, impressing the team with her professionalism and dedication.
She became the first Latin American female driver ever to drive a Formula One car, setting a milestone in female presence at the pinnacle of motorsport.
In 2019 she moved one step closer to F1 and competed in the FIA Formula 2 Championship, where she became the first woman to enter this ultra-competitive series.
In 2021 Tatiana faced new challenges, embarking on an endurance series for the first time, together with the luxury watches brand Richard Mille and the super competitive team Signatech, entering the European Le Mans Series and the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Besides that, Tatiana continued her single/seater career, racing in the Japanese Super Formula.
