In this edition, we feature EDM producer Boys Noize and singer Moga Mogami from Dempagumi.inc, plus exclusive coverage of the FIA World Endurance Championship racing at Fuji Speedway.
ichelle Gatting is a Danish racing driver. We had the opportunity to chat with her about her views about the races, what she plans to achieve in the near future, and the challenges she confronts as she enters the Motorsports sector.
Michelle: My name is Michelle Gatting, I am 29 years old, I am from Denmark, and I am a professional rac- ing driver for the project Iron Dames. I started racing when I was seven years old, more or less by chance, when I tried a go Kart on a holiday in the South of France and fell in love with it.
essentially told my parents that I wanted to be a racing driver, and they were like, OK, I suppose we have to accept that, but here I am, almost 20 years later, or slightly more than 20 years later, being a professional racing driver.
FUSION: What motivates you as a professional driver?
Michelle: I'm the type of person who is full of stub- bornness and willingness you know I'm not the type of person who comes from a family where my family has been supporting my racing since I started our beloved sport that we love to do so much and wish we could basically do every day is a very expensive sport and that's where it makes it very difficult unfortunately for a lot of drivers and so it did for me because yeah you need to be able to sell yourself.
At the end of the day, you need a lot of money to be able to raise and the higher you go in rankings cham- pionships cars whatever the more expensive it is but of course all racing drivers if you walk through the paddock here and ask the drivers they're all either trying to achieve becoming professional being paid drivers or at least trying to achieve not paying to race I mean this is the goal for mainly all race drivers but yeah it's one of the challenges
