MAVTV a media platform for passion-fueled motorsports, powersports and automotive programming has announced the premiere of In the Machine…
The three-part original docuseries marks the network’s first dedicated program that focuses on the increasing presence and impact of women in motorsports. In the Machine follows the inspiring story of Ashley Freiberg, a multifaceted personality-balancing role as a racer, factory driving instructor, part-time real estate agent, and newlywed, all while chasing her dreams of a championship with the MDK team.
This series offers an unprecedented look into Ashley’s tenacious journey, shedding light on the challenges and triumphs faced by women in this dynamic industry. “In the Machine” is produced by Impakt Partners, a women’s sports production and marketing company with the mission to tell important stories about women in sports and accelerate positive social change.
In tandem with the launch of In the Machine: Ashley Freiberg, MAVTV will also present episode highlights from the recent Women with Drive III – Driven by Mobil 1 Summit (WWD III). Partnering with Women in Motorsports North America (WIMNA), these episodes, produced with the support of Gainbridge, will showcase the influential discussions, interviews, and insights from over 450 attendees at the summit. The three 30-minute episodes are set to air on consecutive Thursdays – Jan. 11, Jan. 18 and Jan. 25 at 8:30 pm ET/PT.
MAVTV President CJ Olivares:
