United States Grand Prix: Formula 1 working on new female racing category

Formula 1 is working on a new women’s racing category aimed at opening up pathways for female drivers to the top of the sport. The plan is for the new series to launch as early as next year. The emergence of the new series comes a day after seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton said F1 and governing body the FIA should do more to support women racing drivers. Hamilton said: “There has not been enough focus on women in the sport the whole of F1’s life and there is not enough emphasis on it now. The series boss Catherine Bond-Muir said the 2022 championship was being ended two races early after backing fell through and to provide time to find new financial support for 2023.
