Mathilda Paatz showed last weekend that she is also one of the fastest women in the world in karting: The young driver from Cologne, who made the switch to formula racing this season and recently impressed with a steep learning curve in Formula 4 France, took part in the Champions of the Future Euro Series in preparation for the World Shifter Kart Championship in Portimao (10th to 13th October). Although Paatz lacked the necessary bit of luck to finish at the front, the ADAC Sports Foundation protégée left a good impression with her strong performance, which gives hope.
