Motorsport: Renee Gracie plots return to racing using porn money

  • 24/07/2020

Former Aussie Supercars driver Renee Gracie is targeting a return to the track, cashing in on her switch from motorsport star to adult entertainer.

Last year, Australia's first full-time female Supercars driver quit the sport to sell X-rated content online via subscription-based website OnlyFans, where she claims to be earning up to $25,000 a week. 

The 25-year-old is planning to contest the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia, and is hopeful of making a Supercars comeback in 2021 by self-funding her own race team.

Gracie made her name in the Carrera Cup, competing in 41 races in the Porsche competition before moving to the Supercars' second-tier competition in 2015.

She went on to partner Simona de Silvestro in the 2015 and 16 Bathurst 1000s. 

"I now have the financial security to get back into it," Gracie told The Daily Telegraph.

"I can now afford to go racing without worrying about crashing the car. I can do it and afford to do it. I can go racing and not have to worry about a budget. I won't be reliant on sponsorships."

Gracie isn't getting her hopes up she'll be allowed to race, however.

"I don't think they would want me back," she admits. 

"The pressure I was under in the last couple of years was immense and I don't really want to put myself through that.

"I don't need that pressure because I have a career outside racing now. I will be doing it for enjoyment and fun.

"I have been watching the races and keeping up to date with it. I want to do it again because now I can do it on my own and I can afford to enjoy it."
