Killucan's Richa Mergulhao Oxley is the first female representative from Motorsport Ireland to steward an F1 race.
A Westmeath motorsport official is urging young girls with an interest in the sport to network as much as they can.
Richa Mergulhao developed a love for motorsports while growing up in Dubai, and even met her husband at the track.
The mother of three now lives in Killucan, and is the first female representative from Motorsport Ireland to steward an F1 race.
She's joining 11 others across the world to take part in a FIA High-Performance Programme in Madrid, which aims to develop stewards and race directors for F1 and other FIA events around the world.
Ms Mergulhao says people are always happy to help:
