From 2mbsm website:
"I have been watching Maria and her career and its development for a while and I feel the timing is right for a woman to be in Formula 1, and her recent Formula 1 test was very impressive. There are women drivers in top level championships such as Nascar and Indy Car and in Maria I believe she has the ability, desire and commitment to become a Formula 1 driver. We at 2MB Sports Management are very happy to be working with Maria and will be working together towards the goal of a Formula 1 seat;" commented Mark Blundell.
That's alright then....
