This major hottie even achieved the status of the first female NASCAR driver to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series pole in 2013. No wonder she’s the biggest name in women’s auto racing today.

8. Natasha Chang (@chiney_dolly)Though the 27-year-old Jamaican beauty has always craved for speed and adrenaline, it’s not like she used to dream about being a pro racer when she was young. But ever since the young car enthusiast took up a career in motorsports, she has been making huge waves in the local rally car racing scene. Bubbly, fit and competitive; now that’s sexy!

9. Maryeve Dufault (@MaryeveDufault)Speaking of sexy, French Canadian Maryeve Dufault made her sizzling debut in kart racing in her home country as well as the US. She was born in a family of racers where her father and brother were in motocross. So she dabbled in that first before karting when she was just 8. Fast forward since then, she’s been winning karting champions and named one of the top female drivers in racing today. Even though her stint in modeling may have further elevated her status in racing, she’s actually a more serious race car driver than you might think.
