30 Day F1 Challenge: Day 14

Day 14 - Thoughts and opinons of the politics in f1

·         Teams should not be given a budget cap in 2015 – the best team should win and should have the freedom to spend how much ever in order to develop a stronger car for next season.

There are 7 billion people in this world, and there just 22 grand prix drivers. Out of the 22, there isn’t one female racing driver. This does make you think, why aren't there any women Formula One racers?
