It’s race week (again!) 🏁

I’m pleased to announce I will be competing in the first round of the Radical Club Challenge at Brands Hatch this weekend. I’m back with .motorsport and can’t wait to be in the SR3 again and to build on my experience. This wouldn’t be possible without my sponsors for this year which I will be announcing very soon!

Let’s see what this weekend holds! 🫡

🏎🏁 Alicia Barrett, from Southwell, went to Dubai Autodrome last month to race in the inaugural Formula Woman Nations Cup World Qualifier.🏁🏎

🌟The 20-year-old managed to qualify 5th overall out of 40 drivers from over 27 different nations, meaning she will be racing at the Nations Cup in May 2025!🌟

A former European karting champion, Alicia has been involved in motorsport since she was eight years old and currently combines working as a driver coach and mechanic with her final year degree studies at Nottingham Trent University.📚

Alicia is looking to raise funding for her motor racing. Businesses, brands, or individuals who would like to support her should email [email protected].⬅️

What a whirlwind of a week! 🤩

I am very happy to announce I have qualified for the FW Nations Cup next year after the FW World Qualifiers time trial took place on Thursday at Dubai Autodrome. It was amazing to experience a new track in the radical and I am proud of the pace I showed all week. I managed to qualify 5th overall out of 40 drivers from over 27 different nations which means I will be taking part in the big race next year! Thank you to for this opportunity, as without this organisation I wouldn’t be racing. A big thank you to everyone who has supported me so far on this journey and I can’t wait for the Nations Cup in 2025 🏁

Wow! What a weekend 😅

I couldn’t have asked for a better debut weekend in the radicals, experiencing both a wet and dry race.

Friday was a crucial day for me to get used to the car and the dry track, with red flags making this difficult. However, by the end of Friday I felt ready to go racing Saturday.

The rain decided to make an appearance on Saturday with a wet qualifying and wet Race 1. I started from p12/22 on the grid for Race 1 and had an amazing race getting myself up to p6 overall and p4 in class! I knew this weekend would be tough jumping into a new car, and being the last round of the championship, so I was more than happy with this result! Race 2 was a pitstop race in the dry. I got a good start but unfortunately when the safety car was brought out, we pitted and ran into a few problems making my pitstop over a minute long. I went back out in p18 with the aim of learning as much as possible and managed to move up to p14 overall by the end of the race 🏁

Overall, I am extremely happy with the progress made and have been offered a seat in the Radical World Finals in Abu Dhabi! 🤩

I would like to say a huge thank you to Formula Woman Racing and Graeme Glew for giving me the opportunity to jump into the seat and supporting women in motorsport. Thank you to RJ Motorsport for doing a great job with the car and giving me all the support and encouragement I needed to feel confident and comfortable! This meant a lot to me.
Finally, I’d like to say thank you to my sponsors, Citus Dry Lining, Salon Shelf and MIS Motorsport, whom without this weekend wouldn’t have been possible.

I am still looking for partners to join me in my racing journey, so if you’d like to be involved, please drop me a message 🙌🏻

For the first time in 4 years… it’s race week!! 🏁🙌🏻

I can’t thank enough for this opportunity to get me back out in the seat for my first car race in the BikeSport 750 Motor Club Radical Championship. I will be running with .motorsport and have been testing today at Donington in preparation. I know it’ll be a big learning curve but I can’t wait to get back out and see what I can do!

Thank you to my sponsors Citus Dry Lining and Salon Shelf for your support and making this possible.

Let’s see how it goes 🫡
