A brand-new, all-female race that is going to debut next year has been formally announced by Formula One. The race academy is going to be managed and supported by Formula One Management, the league’s owners, with the goal of assisting more women advance in auto sporting and finally into F1.
New racers
Five teams, each with three drivers, will compete in new championship, which will feature current F1 feeder series, F3 and F2 participants. Seven meetings, each featuring three races, will make up the entire season. Although the calendar hasn’t been finalized, one F1 weekend is anticipated.
According to Stefano Domenicali, CEO of Formula One, each person needs to have the chance to fulfill their desires and realize their talent. The managers want to make certain that they are making all they can to provide more diversity and ways to these unbelievable sporting events.
Since Lella Lombardi’s race in Austria in 1976, F1 didn’t feature a woman car driver to take part in a final race. In the past, it has been extremely difficult for women to compete in the motorsports due to a lack of funding, but F1 is working to address this issue.
Each car will receive a one-hundred-and-fifty-euro subsidy, and the workers are going to be required to fit that amount with their personal funds. Unnamed teams will pay for any additional expenses.
Better diversity
The goal of F1 is to give more women admittance to take part in racing, so they can hone their abilities with established squads who are accustomed to developing talent as a stepping stone to F1. It is hoped that this will make the entrance to F3 more approachable.
Due to a financial crunch, the racing committee had to cancel the final 3 contests of this period. It has yet to reveal its plans for the following season. This season, the racing served as a supporting group at an event, and F1 has stated that it thinks the new championship can coexist with it.
According to its statement, the racing association goes on to offer great opportunities for car riders, and the F1 is meant to introduce another path for the upcoming number of female racers.
