Born in a suburb of the City of Sorel, Quebec, she soon discovered she had a knack for extreme sports. Her dad and brother were talented motorcycle racers. For that reason, she was no stranger to racetracks. At the tender age of two, she had witnessed her dad leading and winning most of the races he competed in.
In her teenage years she competed in motocross, following that by go-kart and open-wheel racing. Maryeve loves to push herself to the limits and thrives on defying the odds.
”Even at a young age I needed powerful rushes of adrenaline, speed and even danger,” Maryeve says. “I loved most extreme sports such like snow skiing and snowmobiling. My dad let me do whatever I wanted, but he always put some restrictions.”
Maryeve competed in various highly competitive open-wheel cars series, such as the Pro Mazda Star Series and the Formula BMW USA. She also worked as a stunt double and has done precision driving for major corporations like Honda. The young lady also did stunt work for actress Mircea Monroe in the “Fast Girl” movie. “We did most of the stunt work at Willow Spring,” Dufault said. “It wasn't my first time doing stunt work, so I had some experience and I understood the camera work and positioning. It was a thrilling and rewarding experience.”
Maryeve also races karts to keep physically fit and to prepare herself for the extreme physical and mental demands of race car driving. She competes in the Rotax International Series, one of the most competitive karting series . Maryeve tunes her own machine and does all the mechanical work herself. She has a mentor in former Champ Car series’ driver Alexandre Tagliani, and she has a karting coach in Jerry Henderson who also helps her with her physical and mental training. “Maryeve is undoubtedly a talented women driven by determination, commitment and passion,” Tagliani declared recently.
“She is a really talented driver with a pure passion for the sports, a driver that can be a champion at every level,” Henderson said about her.
Last winter, Maryeve and her pro teammates competed in an indoor, 12-hour kart endurance event. Mike Reed, who’s been involved in professional motorsport for over 35 years, was really impressed by Maryeve’s driving abilities.“Maryeve was one of the fastest drivers out on the race track,” he said. “She drove non-stop for a long period of time and her lap times never dropped below the 20-second mark. In fact, she did a stunning 19.4, which was one of the fastest laps of the entire race. That made her the fastest driver of the pro team.”
Young Maryeve intends to reach the top level of motorsport. The young lady is focussed on her dream; her passion for motorsport and she’s ready to do whatever it takes to reach the big leagues. Today, she breathes, eats and sleeps racing. She’s ready for the challenge!
