I’d love to see women in F1. I haven’t checked the link, and the only females I can think of are in Indy – Sarah Fisher and Danika Patrick (apologies if they are misspelled, I’m on the iPhone and it’s a hassle to look stuff up without losing what I’ve typed). Sadly, they haven’t had much racing success, despite Danika’s media attention.
As a woman who loves cars and driving, people do often act surprised. I don’t know why I developed this. My parents weren’t into it. I had an uncle whom I didn’t see often that was a good driver, and usually has nice cars, and he had an uncle like that also. One of my brothers and I seem to have gotten that gene.
I’d like to see women in NASCAR too. It seems they’ve had more success in drag racing and on smaller tracks, but none have broken through the ranks. some ethnic diversity would be nice to see, as well! An ex-bf of mine was African-American, and he was a great driver. People gave him looks for liking Auto Sports, too. *sigh *
