Lewis Hamilton has called on Formula 1 to rescue the embattled ‘W Series’. Seven time world champion Hamilton thinks the FIA and Formula 1 should “100 percent” come to the rescue. “I think we need to be doing more, and with the organisation, with Formula 1 and Liberty doing so well, it’s not a lot for them to be able to help out in that space.”. However, Formula 1 appears to be taking a different approach to the W Series demise. Reports suggest the sport is setting up its own all-female series, with the Formula 3 cars to be run by existing F3 and F2 teams and limited to drivers no older than 20.
