Lindsay Marie Brewer (born April 17, 1997) is an Americanmodel andracing driver.[1][2] She currently competes inLamborghini Super Trofeo North America for RAFA Racing.
Brewer was born inArvada,Colorado. When she was 11 years old, she raced a go-kart at a friend's birthday party and became interested in the sport.[3] From 2009 until 2014, Brewer competed in a variety ofkarting championships across the United States.[4] She graduated fromSan Diego State University in 2019 with a degree in business management.[5]
After a four year hiatus for college, in 2019, Brewer competed in the Las VegasSaleen Cup GT Series for the season finale.[6]
Ahead of the2022 W Series season, Brewer was selected to test for a drive in the series. The test took place at Inde Motorsports Park in Arizona where she placed top three lap times in her group and was selected as the top 12 drivers.[7]
Brewer eventually elected to join the IndyPro 2000 series as a rookie for 2022 season with Exclusive Autosport, as she wanted to compete in Open Wheel and in the coed series rather than in an all female series.[8] Brewer first raced in the series at Indianapolis, scoring an 8th place finish in her first race. AtRoad America, Brewer was involved in an incident where her car was launched into the air by a kerb at turn 5, an identical incident happening on the same weekend forChristian Bogle in theIndy Lights series.[9][10] Brewer finished the 2022 season in 15th place with 98 points and a best finish of 8th at Indianapolis.[11] In October, Brewer confirmed she would return to race for Exclusive Autosport in the 2023 season, the inaugural year of its new titleUSF Pro 2000.[12] Brewer finished the season in 18th place, finishing no race higher than 11th all season.[13]
Brewer stepped up to Indy NXT full-time in2024, competing forJuncos Hollinger Racing in the No. 76 after mediocre results in the USF Pro Series.[14] She is the first American female to race in the series sinceLeilani Munter in 2007.[15] Brewer's 2024 campaign is heavily backed by sponsors Gtechniq andC4 Energy.[16] In her first race atSt Pete she scored a top 15 finish.[17] However, she would only score P19 in the following race atBarber Motorsports Park, albeit finishing ahead of fellow female racerJamie Chadwick.[18] Prior to the race, Brewer noted she faced challenges with the physical nature of the circuit.[19] Brewer finished in 16th place atRoad America the last finisher on the lead lap, taking her season points total to 74.[20]
Ahead of the Milwaukee oval races later in the season, Brewer took part in the Indy NXT open test on the Milwaukee Mile in June. She finished 18th fastest overall and clocked 151 laps.[21][22] Days later Brewer and her team Juncos Hollinger Racing signed a sponsorship agreement with theOld Milwaukee Non-Alcoholic near-beer brand.[23] Brewer reached mid-season with a two race weekend atLaguna Seca in the Grand Prix of Monterey. She finished 17th in the first race, and was involved in a final lap incident withYuven Sundaramoorthy who was running third and attempting to lap Brewer when the pair made contact.[24] In race two, Brewer finished in 15th position.[25]
In early July, a statement released by Juncos Hollinger Racing confirmed that Brewer had been temporarily dropped from the team due to unfulfilled contractual obligations. This left the team without a driver for the following race atMid-Ohio due to their second driver,Ricardo Escotto, being a part-time entrant in the series.[26]
In March 2025, Brewer was signed to RAFA Racing to compete in the amateur category of theLamborghini Super Trofeo North America series alongside Jem Hepworth.[27][28] The opening two rounds of the season took place atSebring, where Brewer and Hepworth scored a 6th place and 3rd place finish in the AM class.[29][30]
