The 80-minute film goes live in September on free-to-air platform, Rakuten Stories.

Rakuten TV is to launch an 80-minute documentary about female motorcycle racer Ana Carrasco, who became the first woman to win a motorcycle world championship.

The film, Ride Your Dream, will be available to stream for free on Rakuten TV’s Rakuten Stories across 42 territories on 17 September.

Carrasco won the 2018 World Supersport 300 Championship in the Superbikes WorldSPP300 category, riding against men, at the age of 23.

She discovered her passion for bikes when she was just three years old. Carrasco said: “Everything I’ve achieved helps break barriers and makes the path easier for the next women who will come next. I am very happy to let people know about my story, drawing attention to women in the motorbike industry. Ride Your Dream tells a story in which everyone can achieve whatever they want – and ride their own path to achieve their dreams – no matter how difficult they are.”
