Luna is an incredibly exciting karting talent.
Gwen Lagrue, Driver Development Advisor, on Luna
Luna was born in Spain in 2010 and joined the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team’s Junior Programme in 2022, after impressing in her initial seasons racing in karts and showing encouraging signs of a driver on the rise. She started racing in 2017 and has been travelling around Europe competing in various series since 2019.
She got her start attending the ‘programa mujer y motor’, a series introduced by the Spanish Automobile Federation to attract more females to motorsport.
She then rose through the Spanish karting ranks in the Alevin class, before moving up to larger WSK and IAME Euro Series events, consistently reaching the finals. In 2021, the Spanish-British racer focused on 60 Mini racing and also won the IAME Euro Series in X30 Mini. She stepped up to OK Junior in 2022 and after a good year of development, and remained in the category for 2023 where she made further progress.
Luna is an incredibly exciting karting talent.
