The 17-year-old Cherise Farrugia will be competing in the Coupe des Amateurs at the Vincennes racetrack situated near Paris in France.

This will be her first ever international experience and she will be the youngest ever driver to represent our country in this race apart from being the first female.
The race will be contested between 12 drivers hailing from different countries and it is an autostart race over a distance of 2,100m.
Cherise Farrugia will be driving horse number 11, named Duck Dryme.
