Humaira Mushtaq, a rising racing sensation, is the first professional car racer from Jammu and Kashmir, who is making waves for the country in motorsports.
There are not many who have made a name for India in motorsports at the international level. In a country obsessed with cricket, there have only been a handful of norm breakers, who have gone on to pursue professional racing and made the country proud. Female drivers have been even rarer making Humaira Mushtaq’s achievements even more special.
Humaira, a racing trailblazer, is the first professional and currently the only female car racer from Jammu and Kashmir. She has been making a name for herself in the global racing circuit while breaking stereotypes and doing what no Indian female racer has done before. Humaira created history last year when she became the first female Indian driver to take part in the prestigious British Endurance Championship in London.
