Renee Gracie & OnlyFans Racing: From Creator to Ferrari Comeback

Few stories demonstrate how dramatically the creator economy has changed traditional entertainment and sport quite like Renee Gracie.

The Australian racing driver walked away from professional motorsport after competing at some of the country's biggest events, including two starts in the famous Bathurst 1000. She subsequently built a successful career on OnlyFans before doing something relatively unusual: using that success to help finance a return to professional racing.

Today, the two sides of her career have come together through OnlyFans Racing, with Gracie competing in GT World Challenge Australia in an OnlyFans-backed Ferrari 296 GT3.

And in 2026 the comeback reached another milestone when she teamed up with two-time Bathurst 1000 winner Will Davison and claimed her first outright GT World Challenge Australia victory.

Who Is Renee Gracie?

Renee Gracie began racing professionally long before becoming associated with OnlyFans.

She competed in Australian motorsport and made two appearances in the Bathurst 1000 alongside Swiss driver Simona de Silvestro in 2015 and 2016.

After stepping away from racing, Gracie subsequently became one of Australia's highest-profile adult content creators. The financial independence provided by her online career ultimately gave her the opportunity to consider returning to the sport she had left behind.

By 2021 she was publicly discussing plans to finance her own return to motorsport, and in 2023 she finally returned to professional competition in GT World Challenge Australia.

OnlyFans Helps Fund a Motorsport Comeback

Gracie's return was unusual because OnlyFans was not simply part of her personal story—it became part of the racing programme itself.

When she returned to GT competition in 2023, her Audi R8 GT3 carried prominent OnlyFans sponsorship, bringing the subscription platform into mainstream Australian motorsport.

The partnership continued as Gracie developed as a GT driver. She won the GT World Challenge Australia Trophy title in 2023 and the Am class championship in 2025 before deciding to step up again for the 2026 season.

Rather than remaining with Audi, Gracie switched to one of the most recognisable names in motorsport.

The OnlyFans Racing Ferrari 296 GT3

For 2026, Renee Gracie moved into a Ferrari 296 GT3 competing under the OnlyFans Racing banner.

The move represented another major step in her comeback. Having already won championships in the Trophy and Am categories, Gracie moved into Pro-Am competition with the ambition of racing closer to the front of the field.

She was joined by experienced Australian racer and two-time Bathurst 1000 winner Will Davison, creating one of the most talked-about driver combinations in Australian GT racing.

It didn't take long for the partnership to deliver.

In June 2026, Gracie and Davison claimed their first outright GT World Challenge Australia victory at Queensland Raceway, giving OnlyFans Racing a landmark win with the Ferrari.

For Gracie, it represented another stage in a remarkable journey: from leaving professional motorsport, to building a creator business, to returning and winning outright in a Ferrari.

OnlyFans Racing Is Bigger Than Renee Gracie

OnlyFans' involvement in racing is not confined to Australia.

The platform has also expanded into international motorcycle racing through the OnlyFans American Racing Team, competing in the Moto2 World Championship.

OnlyFans became the team's title sponsor after an earlier partnership in which riders and team members used the platform to provide subscribers with behind-the-scenes access to life inside professional motorcycle racing.

The strategy demonstrates how OnlyFans increasingly sees itself as part of the broader creator economy rather than simply an adult subscription website.

For racing drivers and teams, the same principle applies: give fans access to personalities, training, preparation and behind-the-scenes experiences that traditional television coverage cannot always provide.

Babestation, Cars and the Max Power Era

The combination of glamour, personality and cars may feel very modern, but British audiences have seen something similar before.

During the early-to-mid 2000s, modified-car culture became a huge part of British male entertainment. Max Power, car shows, motorsport, glamour models and television brands frequently occupied the same cultural space.

Events such as Max Power Live became full-scale entertainment shows rather than conventional motor exhibitions, mixing heavily modified cars, sound systems, live entertainment and glamour personalities.

Babestation was part of that same era.

The channel appealed to many of the same young male viewers who followed modified cars, men's magazines and channels such as Men & Motors. Babestation presenters and glamour models appeared around the car-show and promotional scene during a period when television, magazines and live events increasingly crossed over.

It was a distinctive moment in British popular culture: modified cars, late-night television, glamour modelling and men's entertainment all feeding the same audience.

From Max Power to OnlyFans Racing

Seen from that perspective, Renee Gracie and OnlyFans Racing feel less like something completely new and more like a modern version of an old relationship.

Twenty years ago, the crossover happened through:

Max Power magazine, car shows, glamour models, Men & Motors and late-night television.

Today it happens through:

OnlyFans, Instagram, creator subscriptions, podcasts, live cams and social media.

The technology and business models have changed enormously, but cars, glamour and personality remain a powerful combination.

What has changed most is who controls the audience.

In the Max Power era, performers generally relied on television channels, magazines and event organisers to reach fans. The creator economy allows personalities such as Renee Gracie to build audiences directly—and potentially use the income from those audiences to finance entirely different careers.

In Gracie's case, that meant getting back behind the wheel.

Babestation Car Shows

Babestation has also continued to use cars as part of its own performer content.

Car-themed shoots and webcam shows offer a very different setting from the traditional studio, combining the voyeuristic appeal of a private location with the glamour associated with cars and motoring culture.

For Babestation viewers who remember the Max Power generation, there is something familiar about that combination.

The surroundings may have changed from exhibition halls and modified-car magazines to smartphones, live webcams and creator platforms, but the connection between cars, models and interactive entertainment has never entirely disappeared.

Renee Gracie and the Modern Creator Economy

Renee Gracie's story ultimately demonstrates why the creator economy matters.

OnlyFans did not simply provide her with another source of income. It gave her the financial independence and audience required to rebuild a professional motorsport career.

Her return began with an OnlyFans-backed Audi in 2023 and has developed into an OnlyFans Racing Ferrari, championship victories and an outright GT World Challenge Australia win alongside one of Australia's most experienced racing drivers.

It also mirrors a wider transformation familiar to Babestation.

Modern performers increasingly combine multiple platforms: television, live cams, subscription content, social media, podcasts and personal appearances. Their audience is no longer tied to one channel or one format.

From Max Power Live and Babestation in the 2000s to Renee Gracie and OnlyFans Racing today, the relationship between glamour, cars and entertainment continues to evolve.

The platforms may have changed.

The audience clearly hasn't lost its enthusiasm for either.
