Sarah Bovy

Sarah Bovy (born 15 May 1989 in Brussels, Belgium) is a Belgian racing driver, who competed in the 2019 BRSCC W Series Championship using #58 as her race number. Initially listed as a reserve driver, Bovy would compete in three W Series races, before being dropped from the Series' pool of drivers ahead of the 2020.

Background
Bovy began her career in karting, before getting a surprise debut in the Formula Renault 1.6 Belgium in 2005, claiming a shock podium. A return to karting followed, with Bovy only emerging on the race car scene again in 2010, obtaining a one-off race in the Belgian Touring Car Series. 2011 saw Bovy move to the UK to compete in the British GT Championship, although her deal subsequently fell apart.

A Belgian Blossom: 2012 - 2018
Bovy moved back to her native Belgium in 2012 to enter the Belgian Racing Car Championship, where she would go on to finish second in her class. She would remain in the BRCC for 2013, alongside a couple of outings in the Blancpain Endurance Series, before taking a year away from racing in 2014. That year saw Bovy gather enough funds to fund a full season seat in the Renault Sport Trophy, finishing eleventh, before taking a part-time seat in the 2016 edition.

The Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe was Bovy's main choice of entertainment in 2016, with the Belgian racer finishing fourteenth in the Championship. She subsequently secured a return to the Blancpain in the GT Series Endurance Cup for 2017, although her run to seventeenth was not enough to secure a full time seat in 2018. Yet, 2018 would see Bovy claim her best ever race result, finishing second in class at the 24 Hours of Spa.

W Series History
Bovy was among the original 55 applicants to enter the 2019 Driver Selection Test for the 2019 BRSCC W Series Championship, and duly made it through to the final evaluation phase. There, Bovy was given the role of a reserve driver rather than secure a full-time seat, and hence had to sit out the season opening 2019 Hockenheim Race. However, Bovy would be granted the chance to enter her home race at Zolder, only for an engine failure on the grid to leave her stranded.

Bovy subsequently managed to make her debut at the 2019 Misano Race, and duly fought to twelfth amid a queue of drivers. Unfortunately for Bovy she would be forced to sit out the two following rounds in Nuremburg and Assen, before getting the chance to compete at the season finale at Brands Hatch. That, however, would not be a particularly strong race for Bovy, as she finished at the back of the field in nineteenth.

The Belgian racer hence ended the season in nineteenth in the Championship with zero points, and hence missed out on an automatic qualifying place for 2020.
