I don't understand it either. Why the narrow-mindedness? Guys or girls, it's just the same and there's no wrong in that. I guess it's stereotype.

Well, not trying to be sexist, but, biologically, that's just the way it is.

The best place to look for an answer to your question is at some physical sports, such as running and swimming

Most women's record time is higher than male's record time.

It is this extra physical capabilities that makes it harder for women in F1.

In autoracing, yes women has no problem, like that girl who won in nascar. But that's nascar, not F1

In F1, the downforce is folds more than nascar. and not just that, its an endurance as well, you don't just take the G force punishment for 2 or 3 laps but for 50 laps and above.

So, just like in swimming or running competition, women take part, but they dont compete with male

In F1, you cannot have women and men catagory, lol.

In F1, this physical factor will come into play, unlike nascar which the drivers are hardly subjected to any harsh downforce

There are probably so few women competing in this sport because Bernie Eccelstone said something along the lines of '. . a perfect woman driver would be a black girl, who could speak 7 languages and race the @rse off all the blokes'
What can you say to that?!

I have no problem with women drivers in motorsports - but there's only ever been one (Danica Patrick) who is really capable of competing.

Even our very own Penny Mallory never really cut the mustard despite being given all of the right equipment.

If you (or your engendered comrades) could drive an F1 car, they would be driving them.

Remember, on average, women are lighter and shorter than men - something very important in an F1 driver...

I don't know a single 39 year old who writes in txt spk. Try spending some more time in school, whatever age you are.

There are few women in the sport for myriad reasons...most of which are probably too complicated for you.

Obviously all that sport deprived your brain of the necessary oxygen to enable cognisant language.

39? - are you real?

Imagine if you'd had a dictionary since the age of ten...

It's good to see some support for women, (even if your syntax is lousy) thanks!

At least I thinks that's what you're trying to say?

i watched a south african lady win a formula one race at brands hatch in the early eighties.

Your English fails. Bad.

I agree with Oxymoron

If u iz n F1 fan u wood no.

I thinx u r moor monster truck typ

evr here of spell chek?

that is called "male factor"

I thought only NASCAR had redneck fans...

Sounds like you are 9 not 39

well, i dont like it because its so boring (im a guy though) take her to nascar! :P
