Emma Felbermayr. Young, talented, but how,when and where did she start?
Emma is a 19 year old girl from Wels/(Austria). She was born on January 27th 2007. The name Felbermayr might seem familiar to some, since her dad Horst Felbermayr is also active in Motorsports.
Emma had started her career at 7 years old, when she and her brother got gifted a go kart by their grandfather. At first she only karted as a hobby, but at the age of eight her first competition (in the Micro Class) took place. In 2019 Emma made her International Debut in the OKJ class at the Torfeo Delle Industrie. She competed in karting for several years, moving through Mini, OK Junior and KZ2 Levels before moving to single-seater racing in F1 Academy, a racing series for female drivers.
Emma began racing in F1 Academy in the 2025 season. She represented Kick Sauber (now Audi) and is operated by Rodin Motorsports. Ever since then Emma has had solid results and always had a great opportunity to prove how good of a driver she is. As of April 2026 Emma has won at least two races, her maiden victory in Montreal race two/2025.
What other doors are open for Emma and what successes will she achieve?
