Hedda Hosås

She ended up preferring the latter, but difficulties with budget and facilities led to her working as a mechanic to fund her career and travelling large distances only to train.

[11] In July she was called up by Jenson Button's JBXE team for the following round in Sardinia, making up the youngest lineup in the grid with Kevin Hansen.

Hosås remained with JBXE for the 2023 season, being paired with Formula One race winner Heikki Kovalainen and later countryman Andreas Bakkerud.

[16] At her debut race in Antofagasta, Hosås and teammate Tanner Foust made the final on both days and achieved McLaren's first ever qualifying heat win in the series.
