Career Karting (2023–2024) Jacquet began karting in 2023, initially starting out in rental karting before joining National Series Karting later that year. Joining the FFSA Academy-centrally run French Junior Karting Championship the following year, Jacquet finished 14th in that season's standings with a best result of ninth at Mirecourt.

Formula 4 (2025–) Stepping up to single-seaters for 2025, Jacquet remained in FFSA Academy-centrally run series, joining the French F4 Championship as one of six girls on the grid. Finishing as high as 12th in the first round at Nogaro, Jacquet then scored a best result of 18th at Dijon before taking her second top-15 of the season with a 14-place finish at Spa. Two top-20 finishes at Magny-Cours then ensued, before scoring a 14th-place finish at Lédenon and a season-best 11th at Le Mans.

In parallel to her F1 Academy campaign, Jacquet returned to the French F4 Championship, albeit as a guest driver. During 2026, Jacquet also made a one-off appearance in the Formula 4 CEZ Championship at the Red Bull Ring for Mathilda Racing, scoring a best result of 12th in race two.

F1 Academy (2025–)

In late 2025, Jacquet participated in the F1 Academy rookie test at Navarra, finishing 11th and seventh in the morning and afternoon sessions, respectively. Towards the end of the year, it was announced that Jacquet would join the Williams Driver Academy from 2026 onwards, as she also joined ART Grand Prix for her maiden season in F1 Academy. After finishing 13th on debut at Shanghai, Jacquet finished 12th twice at Montreal, describing it as a 'a good weekend of learning'.
