We kick off our first podcast in 2023 talking all things motorsport with four female athletes from Monster Energy.
That’s right, we’re going to be doing lots of Podcasts in 2023. What better way to kick the series off on International Women’s Day than catching up with a quartet of female Monster Energy athletes.
We sat down with Top Fuel Racer Jndia Erbacher, Spinning and Stunt Driver Stacey-Lee May, Motorbike Stunt Driver Sara Aydin and Drifter Tessa Whittock, to discuss their respective sporting disciplines and their plans for 2023. These women really do bring a whole new meaning to girl power. Here’s a quick rundown of each of the Monster Energy female athletes before you hit that play button.
Jndia Erbacher
Jndia is from Basel in Switzerland and is an International Top Fuel drag racer and record holder; competing in the FIA European Drag Racing Championship. She also runs her own team, and leads the development of her 10,000-horsepower drag car. Yup you did read that right, TEN THOUSAND HORSE POWER. Furthermore, she recently set new European records at Hockenheim and is a leading light in the dragster scene.
