Tatiana Calderón will race in the Brazilian Stock Car Pro Series

Tatiana Calderón is the only Latin American woman to have ever driven a Formula 1 car (as a development driver). She’s raced in F3 and F2, IndyCar, Super Formula, ELMS and WEC, and last year she drove the Mustang GT3 in IMSA for Gradient Racing before being dropped for presumably stupid business reasons. Obviously, she is a heck of a wheel-woman. And now she’s got a new full-season job.

She’s driving in Brazil’s Stock Car Pro Series. If you haven’t heard of it, that’s probably because you aren’t Brazilian. It’s a top-tier touring car road racing series that I would put on a level with Supercars in Australia. People like Rubens Barrichello, Felipe Massa, and Hélio Castroneves race in it. You can watch it on YouTube, and you definitely should.
