You are right, she's not the first woman to tackle the mountain and the media seem to forget that at times - Sue Ransom, Christine Gibson and a handful of other ladies got there first

But are you suggesting that the results she achieved in a V8 with GRM are not credible? Leanne achieved a number of podium places if I recall correctly.

Anyhow, hopefully she will gain a regular drive and prove her worth, but some of her recent performances were hindered by car issues....not that you can always blame the car!

Good to see she's driving with Wall rather than Patrizi now, she actually has a chance of finishing!

Yes you are right stigette, she has the credentials & also has achieved some good results in the past but for some reason it's just not clicking at present... Here's hoping she settles down soon & shows what she can do

Good on you for remembering the Christine Gibson's & Sue Ransom's etc. They were genuinly fast & definitely racing in a male dominated sport back then
