Biography

Hawkins made her professional motorsport début in British Formula Ford at Silverstone, in a one-off event where she twice finished inside the top ten.[2] Her strong rookie performance saw her being picked up by Falcon Motorsport to contest the 2015 MSA Formula Championship.[3] She had to wait until the fourth round of the championship at Oulton Park to make her debut, and only completed half of the ten-round championship – finishing 11th twice and placing 23rd in the championship.[4][5] In an attempt to keep her single-seater dreams alive, she entered the Bahrain round of the 2015–16 MRF Challenge but finished 15th in both races.[6]

In 2016 Hawkins moved into single-make racing, competing in the Volkswagen Racing Cup series.[7] She crossed over to the Mini Challenge in 2017, scoring six class wins and finishing runner-up to Matt Hammond in the Pro division.[8] Hawkins returned to the VW Cup in 2018, spending most of that year working as a stunt driver on Fast and Furious Live.[9]
