TeddyG should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I think it would be really cool to see a female driver in F1. Think how much fame it would bring to whoever the lucky girl ended up being, sooo many sponsers!!
I agree F1 has been always looked at a macho sport but times are changing and there are a lot more female motorsport fans than there used to be (it has been reported that 40% of NASCAR viewers are female thus I can assume the numbers are also increasing for F1). And if there are more fans there will be more women that will dream of entering the sport and more that will strive to get there. It is only a matter of time before we see a female F1 driver I believe. However when the first woman does get there can you imaging how much pressure her male teammate will feel? It will be great and I can't wait to see it!
