As an ambitious woman with success on many levels of motorsport, she is Emma Kimiläinen after seasons in the Scandinavian Championship Formula Ford and Sweden Radical Challenge championship won a test seat in the factory team Audi in the DTM Championship and continued in the series ADAC Formula Masters in Formula Palmer Audi.
She also defeated aces who later managed to get in as well Formula 1. Let’s just mention it here Valtteria Bottas in Kevin Magnussen, who was also her teammate for a while. She also taught the art of speeding Marcus Ericsson.
Then it seemed like she was running out of finances and that she might be fed up with racing, but the truth was elsewhere. In the podcast Shikaani Formula 1 je Kimiläinen finally talking about what had taken her so far away from racing.
After before decade in Europe did not find the right opportunity in single seats, she decided to pursue a career at the other side of the Atlantic. She was offered a chance in the series Indy lights, development series for IndyCar, but as she found out later, with an unpleasant surprise.
The team she negotiated with did not ask for any sponsors from her, which seemed strange to her, but she attributed it all to the fact that things in the US are obviously different arranged as in Evropi. However, they did not give her the name of the sponsor who was supposed to take care of the payment of her seat.
As it turned out later, it was about magazine for men, and her engagement depended primarily on whether she was willing to pose for the magazine "Top without". The team otherwise wanted the racer to pose in the magazine bikini, but they asked the sponsor more bare skin.
Kimiläinen she was, understandably, angry and told the team that she did not intend to sign a contract under such conditions. It's all together boiled over and for four years she was completely off the racing tracks. Despite the prolonged absence, she says she has not lost the joy of racing and v WSeries Finka may certainly draw attention to himself. By racing, not posing.
