Former Formula 1 development driver Susie Wolff launched the ‘Dare to be Different’ program in 2018. Motorsport Australia joined forces with Susie Wolff to introduce the program to Australia. The initiative was designed to help young girls from around Australia understand the opportunities that await them in the motorsport industry, whether it is as a driver, engineer, mechanic or one of the many other roles in a growing industry.
From 2020, the program was rebranded to FIA Girls on Track, a global not-for-profit initiative to inspire and celebrate women in every aspect of motorsport. We offer girls aged 8-22 a unique opportunity to participate in our free FIA Girls on Track events.
The program is supported by a team of Ambassadors and Champions who are pursuing various roles in the industry. From team owners, to engineers, to physiotherapists and officials, these women have a depth of knowledge about the sport and their areas of expertise. These women showcase that everyone has a rightful place in the sport and act as role models to support the younger generation into the industry.
“The girls thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and were very impressed by the opportunities available in the motor sport Industry... the energy and smiles on the girls faces coming home yesterday were pure joy.” - Susanne, St John Fisher College
Our Mission
Inspire the next generation of young girls to consider a career in STEM Industries, including motorsport.
Connect young girls and women who work in motorsport
Showcase role models and those who have dared to be different.
Support and develop talent, unleash potential, inspire and connect.
“It makes me want to be like them, they are awesome, because they all have persevered and become who they wanted to be.” – Natasha
FIA Women in Motorsport - Your Career in Motorsport

Engineer your Career
Engineering is the art of applying science, technology and maths to create solutions for human needs to improve the way we live. As an engineer, every day is a challenge to innovate and solve problems. It influences all aspects of our
lives. Without engineering we wouldn’t be able to carry out daily tasks (transport, construction, generate and use electricity). Engineering disciplines are very diverse. Areas in which you can specialise include Mechanical,
Aerospace, Electrical and Civil.

Your Career as a Motorsport Official
Every motorsport event requires a variable number of volunteers and officials, without them the
sport could not function. Officials ensure that events are conducted fairly in accordance with the regulations. Volunteers and officials also make possible that the Events are run in a safe manner. Not just for competitors but for other officials and spectators. Areas in which you can specialise are technical, sporting, media and emergency.
