 | Champions and Members of the British Women Racing Drivers’ Club gathered at Silverstone To celebrate International Women’s Day.
Motor sport is one of the very few sporting activities in which men and
women compete alongside each other on an equal footing, yet as they
make up only 8% of registered licence holders, women are hugely
under-represented among motor sport drivers.
There are, nonetheless, an estimated 50,000 women actively involved in
British motor sport, organising events, running clubs and associations,
timekeeping, marshalling and fulfilling a host of other support roles
without which the sport itself could not continue. |
