Karting

Born in Dronten, Visser began karting in 2007 and raced in various European and International championships, working her way up from the junior ranks to progress through to the KZ1 category by 2011, when she finished in tenth position in the CIK-FIA European KZ1 Championship.[1][2]

ADAC Formel Masters

2012 saw her début in the ADAC Formel Masters championship with Lotus, also known as Motopark Academy.[3] Visser finished eighth in the championship with wins at Zandvoort and EuroSpeedway Lausitz, and another ten point-scoring finishes.[4]

She remained in the series with the team for the 2013 season; she won one race during the season, at the Sachsenring, and finished eighth again, in the final championship standings.[5]

GP3 Series

In 2014, Visser competed in the opening round of the GP3 Series with Hilmer Motorsport.[6] She also competed in the Spa-Francorchamps round of the 2015 season with Trident.

Formula Renault 3.5 Series

As well as the GP3 Series, Visser graduated to the Formula Renault 3.5 Series in 2014, joining AVF.[7] She scored her first point during Race 1 at Spa-Francorchamps.[8] She completed two seasons with Adrian Valles' team, before switching to Teo Martín Motorsport in 2016. She scored a best result of 5th (Jerez 2016) and a best finish of 13th in the championship (2016).

Visser left Formula V8 at the end of 2016, and took up a development role with a student team from Eindhoven University of Technology (Automotive Technology InMotion), who were developing an electric open-wheeler. In June 2017, the team broke the EV lap record at Zandvoort, going 16 seconds faster than the previous best.[9]

GT4

In mid-2017, she was admitted into the BMW Junior Driver programme, where she was entered into the 2017 GT4 European Series Southern Cup alongside German driver Dennis Marschall.[10] The pairing won the penultimate round of the campaign in Barcelona. She and Marschall will continue in the class in 2018.
