Who We Are

Well, it’s a bit of a long story. Girls In The Fast Lane is the brainchild of Ashleigh Jayde. A community grown to smash the glass roof put over Women in Motorsports, particularly Formula 1.

After stumbling her way into watching Formula 1, Ashleigh found herself in a world without representation of people like her. And, you guessed it, she’s working overtime to change that.

Girls In The Fast Lane is a community and safe space for the she’s, the gays and the they’s to all come together and enjoy Formula 1.

GITFL started as a humble unscripted podcast but has expanded across multiple platforms such as TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. The vision for Girls In The Fast Lane is ever-changing in hopes of giving more opportunities to Women, Non-Binary People and the LGBTQIA+ Community in 2023 and beyond.

If you're looking for super-serious scripted content, keep looking. But if you want to listen to people learning, growing and having uncensored discussions about Formula 1, then welcome, you are in the right lane.

Meet the pit crew.

This is the team that keeps the Girls In The Fast Lane wheels turning day in and day out.
