Japan’s female racing stars are rising fast thanks to the Kyojo Cup, now in its tenth year and upgraded to Formula Four-spec cars—drawing F1 Academy comparisons and turning Japan into a premier stage for women drivers. Spearheaded by Le Mans legend Masanori Sekiya, who dreams of making it as elite as Super Formula, the series refuses to export talent, instead building a homegrown powerhouse where women can shine. With international recruits and improved track time, the competition is fierce and fairer than ever. Early hiccups like clutch systems were ironed out, and Sekiya insists speed isn’t the priority—driver development and prize money matter more. Born from frustration with male-dominated motorsport, his mission? To create a future where women don’t just race, but rule.
