International Women’s Day happens on 8 March each year (we celebrate our own Women’s Day on 9 August in South Africa) and with that in mind we take a look at some interesting facts about women in motorsport, then and now, in the infographic below.
There is a bit about who the trailblazers of the sport were (watch Michéle Mouton win and break the 1985 Pike’s Peak Hillclimb record), which females are considered the best today and which drivers could be at the top of their game in the not too distant future.
