Motor racing has never been more popular than today, yet female athletes – in a sport with equality of rules – still receive shockingly lower sponsorship funding.
Addressing these issues, for us, is no one-day topic, but rather a year-round quest.
While we would like to do more, our mission has become to challenge gender stereotypes in the sport and highlight positive women role models to boost participation and viewership.
A big thank you to all of you – those who literally DRIVE gender parity – for working together week in and week out.
