Anna is a UK Production S1 racer. She has
revealed how she nearly lost her racing licence
after being stopped for speeding at 100mph on the
A11 in Norfolk. The driver, from Hindhead in
Surrey, was returning from the EERC meeting at
Snetterton when she committed the offence. But she
was able to keep her licence after her legal team
pleaded with Magistrates she would not be able to
continue racing or provide lifts for her younger
brother, who suffers from cerebral palsy, if she
was banned. The 18 year old said: "I'm relieved as
it would have meant an end to my racing and not
being able to help my disabled brother." Walewska,
a former karting and T-Cars competitor was the
youngest female in Britain to obtain her racing
licence when she passed her ARDS test in 2001. She
apparently now wants to race in Formula BMW in
2006.
