Jamaican Sara Misir is set to feature in GMR&SC/E-Net Caribbean Clash of Champions
Kaieteur Sports – Jamaica’s trailblazing Formula Woman racer, Sara Misir, is gearing up for her inaugural appearance in the Group 4 category at the ENet Caribbean Clash of Champions scheduled for November 5th, taking place at the South Dakota Circuit.
Sara’s motorsport journey has been nothing short of impressive. She burst onto the international scene in 2022 when she made her debut in the prestigious GT Cup Championship in the UK. During this time, she proudly represented the Formula Woman Team for McLaren Customer Racing in the British GT Cup Championship.
Returning to her home turf at the Dover Raceway, Misir demonstrated her prowess, securing an incredible three consecutive victories in JRDC meets. This remarkable achievement led to her being crowned the champion in both the 2022 JRDC Modified Production 3 and TS1 Classes.
Sara Misir is far from an ordinary competitor. Prior to her motorsport endeavors, she excelled as a dedicated equestrian, showcasing unwavering resilience and determination, even in the face of adversity. Following a severe accident resulting in a broken jaw and fractured skull, she made a remarkable recovery within six months, solidifying her reputation as a formidable force.
