Hamda Al Qubaisi (Arabic: حمدة القبيسي; born 8 August 2002) is an Emirati racing driver competing in F1 Academy for MP Motorsport. In June 2021, she became the first woman in the history of Italian F4 to score a podium, achieving third place in the first race of the season at Misano.[1]

Career

Karting

Hamda started karting in 2015 and was the first Emirati to be invited to the FIA-sponsored CIK-FIA Karting Academy Trophy in 2016. She finished 3rd in the IAME X30 Championship in 2017.[2]

Lower formulae

2019

Hamda made her debut in Italian F4 in the middle of the 2019 season when she joined her older sister Amna Al Qubaisi at the Abu Dhabi Racing by Prema team, run in cooperation with the Iron Lynx structure.[3]

2020

After winning three races on home soil in the United Arab Emirates' F4 series in 2020, she returned for a full campaign in Italy with Iron Lynx and claimed two points finishes.[4]

2021

In the 2021 Formula 4 UAE Championship, Hamda secured a further three wins, one pole position, and six podiums, to clinch fourth place in the standings once more.[5] In her main campaign, she took part in the Italian F4 Championship.[6] During the round held at Misano in June 2021, Hamda became the first ever woman to step on the podium in the championship, taking third place behind Leonardo Fornaroli and Oliver Bearman. In the process, she also managed to secure her first podium in Europe.[7] She added three more points finishes and ended the championship in 17th place, with 24 points.

Formula Regional

During pre-season, Hamda took part in the 2022 Formula Regional Asian Championship with Evans GP.[8] Unfortunately, she was unable to take points and finished the championship 28th.

For 2022, Hamda contested a full season of the Formula Regional European Championship with Prema Powerteam.[9]

FIA Formula 3 Championship

Hamda was selected to take part in testing the FIA Formula 3 car on 16–17 September 2022, alongside three other women at Magny-Cours.[10]

F1 Academy

Hamda and her sister Amna signed with MP Motorsport for the 2023 F1 Academy season.[11] She placed 3rd in the championship with four wins. She re-signed with the team for the 2024 season and joined the Red Bull Academy Programme to represent Red Bull Racing.[12]

Personal life

Hamda is the younger sister of Amna Al Qubaisi and the daughter of Khaled Al Qubaisi, CEO of Real Estate and Infrastructure Investment platform at Mubadala Investment Company, and who is also an accomplished figure in UAE motorsport.[13] She had been attending New York University Abu Dhabi,[14] but continued with her schooling in Italy until October 2021.[15]
