Men have dominated motor racing for decades, until Formula One recently decided to set up an international women's-only competition, which lasted several months in separate circuits between famous European cities. Arab women continue to be able to present a celebrated model.

Saudi Arabia's Rima Juffali is now gearing up for the international electric car race.

Rima Al Juffali, 27, played her first Formula 4 championship in the UK.

A passion for leadership
Al-Juffali was not alone in this field, having run her first local race in the UAE. She was a financial services employee in Dubai, discovering her passion for driving, leaving her job and devoting her life to motor racing.

Rima is the first Saudi woman to receive a driving license for electric motor racing. She also won second place at the TRD86 Cup in Abu Dhabi and participated in the MRF International Challenge in India.

Al Juffali is preparing to run an international race held in the historic city of Diriyah, with its participation in electric car races for the enthusiastic Jaguar Championship.

Juffali competed for drivers over the age of forty years, as well as their age experience. Although Juffali is the first Saudi to enter this type of racing, Aseel Al-Hamad was the first to drive Formula 1 cars, according to CNN.

Aseel Alhamd
In June 2018, in conjunction with the decision to allow women to drive in Saudi Arabia, Aseel Al Hamad was launched at the Formula One circuit in France.

Al-Hamad is the first woman to become a member of the Saudi Automobile and Motorcycle Federation. She is also a member of the FIA ​​Women's Committee for Motor Sports. She is also the first woman to import a Ferrari to Saudi Arabia.

"The most beautiful is that motorsport is not a split sport; women can compete equally with everyone. We just have to dream of more women in all sectors of motorsport," said Aseel on race day. This is evident in the Rima Juffali race electric cars as a new type added to the Saudi and Arab women.

First Formula 1 for women
This year's first Formula One women's race between European cities took place this year, marking the start of a new triumph for women who have fought for four decades for their right to motor sports since Italian Lela Lombardi took part in 1976. Women have since competed against men and demanded them to organize races for women only.
