Why are there no women in Formula 1 — even though they’re allowed to race? 🤔
Formula 1 is the fastest, most exclusive motorsport on Earth, but in over 70 years of racing, only five women have ever competed in a Grand Prix. From blatant sexism and closed doors to funding barriers and brutal physical demands, the road to F1 has never been equal.
In this video, we break down the real reasons women disappeared from the F1 grid — and why that might finally be about to change. 🏎️🔥
We dive into the stories of the five women who made history, including Maria Teresa de Filippis, Lella Lombardi (the only woman to ever score F1 points), and Giovanna Amati — whose short 1992 stint reshaped perceptions for decades. We also explore how stereotypes, lack of sponsorship, and a male-dominated feeder system quietly locked women out of the sport.
From the rise and fall of the W Series, to Susie Wolff’s F1 Academy and the new generation of drivers like Abbi Pulling, this video explains how Formula 1 is finally building a real pathway for women — not just publicity.
So… will we see a woman on the F1 grid again? And if so, how close are we really?
Watch till the end for the full breakdown — and let us know your thoughts in the comments. 👇
