Tinna Vander, VanWinder (3646)

Since her mother owned most of brand new team VanWinder, Tinna Vander had to live down a reputation she'd bought her way into the sport, and did so by maintaining a record as the fourth best driver on the grid. She was not the most successful rookie that year, however, finishing behind Alonz Fernan, who was beaten by tharp rookie Bloop Ronul - the heir of manufacturer Ronwell.

Nonetheless, Vander's rookie season proved VanWinder deserved a place on the track, and that she was the driver to get it there. Her father, Belkan reporter Tentin, served as commentator at Bannerdye, where she placed second, her best that season.
