Meet Lindsay Brewer, glamorous racing driver dreaming of Indy 500 who hit back at trolls over her swimwear photos

LINDSAY Brewer is aiming to follow in the footsteps of Danica Patrick to become an elite racing driver and swimwear model at the same time.

After starting out in karting, the Colorado native is one of the few female drivers in the Road to Indy developmental program, alongside British star Jamie Chadwick in Indy NXT.

The 26-year-old is currently competing for Exclusive Autosport in the USF Pro 2000 Championship, which is two tiers below the IndyCar Series.

While Lindsay has struggled in the standings this year, she dreams of climbing through the ranks to become just the 10th female driver to compete in the Indy 500.

“We’re around the same body build, and if Danica could do it, why can’t I?” Lindsay told People magazine.

“I know I can do anything that these guys can do.

“I know I’m quicker. I know I can do it.”

Lindsay played golf and tennis as a child but it soon became clear that motor racing was her calling.

“I went to a birthday party at this go-kart track, and I ended up being quicker than all the adults and the boys,” she says.

“The track owner told my dad, ‘You really need to get her her own cart. She actually has a natural talent at this’.”

After gaining a business degree from San Diego State University, Lindsay returned to motor racing in 2019.

Thanks to her good looks and sexy images, Lindsay has attracted an impressive 2.1 million followers on Instagram and over 630,000 followers on TikTok.

Her social media presence has helped her motor racing career significantly, gaining sponsorship deals with the likes of C4 Smart Energy, Surge Trader,  Pirelli, Evian and RayBan.

Lindsay’s huge social media profile has generated some criticism from fellow racing drivers who are unhappy with her sexy image.

But she recently told her detractors to pump their brakes, calling them “anti-feminist.”

“I’ve talked to a few female drivers in the past who were older and I asked for advice… and they were like, ‘stop posting swimwear photos, this just makes women look so bad in the industry’,” Lindsay told Dailymail.com.

“If you’re truly about feminism and women in the industry, you should allow them to be who they wanna be and not put them in that box.

“Like you should not say, ‘OK you can’t wear makeup, you have to dress a certain way, you can’t post certain things.’

“I think that’s honestly anti-feminist.”

Lindsay is also angered by claims that she is “pretending” to be a racing driver in her social media posts.

“I just hate being put in a box,” she said.

“I will always have my hair bleached, I’ll have my fake nails, but yet I can still be a bada** driver.

“I don’t wanna be put into certain categories.

“I still can take care of myself and look ‘glamorous’ and girly, but still be quick on the track.”
