She is the younger sister of F1RWRS driver Diego Álvarez Torrente and F3RWRS driver Jorge Álvarez Torrente. She is the current reserve driver for the Nebula Formula Female World Championship team.

Early Life

Carmen was born to José Álvarez, a former racing driver, and Ximena, a store manager in Granada. After seeing her brothers Diego and Jorge make names for themselves in the karting scene, Carmen felt that she could also follow suit. She created a reputation in her native Andalusia for having uncompromising speed in karting, and joined the Astro Racing Stars program after rave reviews from her two brothers.
