Will a woman ever race in F1? The last one started in 1976 Red Bull F1 News #shorts | Lella Lombardi

Video Description from YouTube:

The last woman to start a Formula 1 Grand Prix was Lella Lombardi in 1976, and she is still the only woman to score a world championship point (half a point, 1975 Spanish GP). Could that change?

Susie Wolff drove in F1 practice in 2014, the first woman at a race weekend in 22 years, and now runs F1 Academy: 18 women, 6 teams, 10 cars backed by F1 teams. Red Bull driver Alisha Palmowski leads the 2026 standings with four wins and a 48-point gap after four of six rounds. 2025 champion Doriane Pin is a Mercedes development driver and has driven a Mercedes F1 car. But there are no women on the 2026 F3 or F2 grids, so the next step is the big one.
