Gabriela Jílková (born 2 April 1995) is a professional Czech racing driver currently competing in the 2025 GT4 European Series with TGR Team Matmut Évolution.

Nicknamed 'Quick Gabi', she holds titles including the GT Winter Series championship, has secured victories in LMP3 races, and serves as a development driver for the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team.

Career

Starting karting at the age of eight, Jílková progressed to car racing by 2012, making her debut in the Formula Renault 2.0 NEC at Autodrom Most. After achieving podium finishes in several FR2.0 outings, her racing activities were interrupted in 2014 due to a severe accident resulting in a vertebral injury. Upon recovery, she competed intermittently in the Renault Clio Cup, participated in the 2019 12 Hours of Brno driving a KTM X-Bow GT4, and took part in the 2020 W Series selection test. Additionally, she conducted a brief test with the electric RG Nathalie sports car designed for the ultimately canceled Electric Production Car Series.

In 2021, Jílková claimed two victories and secured the GTS class championship in the GT Winter Series, while also contesting a full season in the ADAC GT4 Germany series with Team Zakspeed. Alongside teammate Robert Haub and under the guidance of former Formula Two champion Kevin Mirocha, they achieved two overall podiums and concluded the championship eighth overall piloting a Mercedes-AMG GT4. The following year, she balanced commitments between ADAC GT4 and the Pro-Am division of the GT4 European Series, both campaigns undertaken with Drago Racing Team ZVO. She also competed for Goa Aces during the inaugural season of the Indian Racing League, securing two podium finishes and ending tenth in the standings.

For 2023, Jílková initially signed with PROsport Racing, reigning champions of ADAC GT4, before transitioning to prototype racing by joining Jörg van Ommen’s new LMP3 outfit in the Prototype Cup Germany. Partnered with Xavier Lloveras, she amassed 83 points and achieved a victory from pole position at Circuit Zandvoort. Concurrently, she took part in FFSA GT Championship’s female shootout initiative alongside Lucile Cypriano for Akkodis ASP and Matmut, finishing third in Pro-Am driving a shared Toyota GR Supra. Her Indian Racing League campaign that year ended just short of victory due to an incident late in the season.

In 2024, Jílková concentrated on competing in GT4 Europe with Matmut Évolution alongside hillclimb specialist Cindy Gudet. Despite Gudet sustaining an injury at Hockenheim, they managed to finish sixth overall in Pro-Am. She also delivered strong performances during the Indian Racing League winter series, securing four podiums and contributing significantly to Goa Aces’ triumph in the teams’ championship. The duo resumed their collaboration for GT4 Europe competition in 2025.

Porsche (2023–present)

A pivotal moment arrived for Jílková in October 2023 when she tested a GT3 vehicle for Timo Bernhard’s team competing in the DTM. Soon after, she was enlisted by the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E outfit as their official rookie driver during the 2023 pre-season test at Valencia. This led to her appointment as a simulator and development driver, playing an integral role as the team secured the World Drivers' Championship title with driver Pascal Wehrlein.

In November 2024, Jílková took part in the inaugural women’s test session at Jarama, further cementing her involvement with Porsche. Following this event, she was officially contracted as a Porsche factory driver for the 2025 season—an important advancement marking her growing stature within professional motorsport.
