Juju is the daughter of former professional racing driver Hideki Noda – a man with three F1 retirements to his name, but more impressively, a victory in each of Indy Lights and Super GT500. She received much acclaim as a ‘racing prodigy’, and her exploits behind the wheels of powerful Formula racing cars started when she was 4 years old with the KIDS kart race driver (Debut win Beginner class).
