Yarışçı Genel Bakış
Katarina Kyvalova is a Slovakian racing driver with a passion for historic motorsport. Based in Hamburg, Germany, Kyvalova's journey into racing began with classic car rallies before transitioning to circuit racing. In 2014, she founded the Bentley Belles, an all-female racing team, and made history as the first all-female team to compete in a Bentley at the Benjafield's 24 Hours race in Portimão. Since then, she has regularly competed in historic motorsport events, driving a pre-war 4.5 Litre Bentley, a 1954 Cooper Jaguar, and a 1965 Jaguar E-Type, among others.
Kyvalova's racing achievements include a third-place finish at the Goodwood Revival in 2015 and another podium at the Spa Six Hour Race the same year. She has participated in prestigious events such as the Flying Scotsman, Mille Miglia, Goodwood Revival, Le Mans Classic, and Monaco Historique. In 2018, she ventured into modern GT racing with a Mercedes AMG GT4, competing in the GT4 European Series and the Dubai 24 Hours. In 2021, at her third Monaco Grand Prix Historique, she finished 5th overall and 2nd in class.
Kyvalova's love for classic cars started with joining Germany's oldest classic car club and purchasing her first car, an Austin-Healey 3000. Her decision to pursue circuit racing was fueled by a bet made after the Flying Scotsman Rally. Through the Bentley Belles, Kyvalova also aims to inspire other women to participate in motorsport.
