First Woman To Represent Lebanon In Formula Woman Nations Cup

As the Formula Woman Nations Cup nears, we’re excited to inform our racing enthusiasts that Lebanon, for the first time ever, will be competing among 50 women for the title.

The passionate Pia-Maria El Boueri made a name for herself as she raced to qualify for the FW Nations Cup.

The racing driver was pursuing her Master’s in International Commercial Law at the University of Bristol. She then found a wonderful team at Formula Woman in the United Kingdom to support her passion for racing.

Now with the proper resources to support her racing career, El Boueri became the first and only Lebanese woman to represent Lebanon and the Middle East in the FW Nations Cup. She will be flying to the UAE to compete in Yas Marina (F1 Circuit) in Abu Dhabi in March 2024, among 50 women from 26 countries.

El Boueri hopes to encourage women to pursue motorsports, despite its limited support in Lebanon and across the Arab world.

We take great pride in offering El Boueri unwavering support in her career as a racing driver. We’ll be cheering her on, every step of the way.
