When a four-year-old Humaira Mushtaq first took to the karting circuit her father had constructed behind their house in Dubai, she would have never imagined that her journey through the motorsport world would result in her becoming a name to remember, both on the Indian and international circuits.
Meet Humaira Mushtaq The First Women Formula Car Racer From J&K.
The first female Formula racer from Jammu & Kashmir claims her career’s first podium finish at MRF national racing championship. She was the first woman from UT of Jammu & Kashmir to claim this achievement in the male-dominated world of car racing. In this interview, she shared her journey from dreaming of a goal to achieving the goal.
Allahamduliah, I feel grateful since it’s my first career milestone. It’s the first podium finish of my career. At this point, I’m grateful and feel blessed.
I started my professional career in 2019 with JK tyres then I was with MRF.
I’ve been a student of dentistry but I don’t practice as a professional I’m focused on my professional career as a racing driver.
My message is not just limited to women or youth. My message goes out to everyone. I want to tell you to dare to dream the impossible and believe in your dreams not just believe work for them. Hard, very hard.
