rather decent of you ...........now i wont have to naff about with the camera so much

And I can enjoy the photos.

Lets go back in time now.and have a look at the few women to make it in f1.......1970s.............Devina galica......once held a down hill speed record of 125mph............blimey on skis...................and then drove in f1

Cars and drivers-my earliest memory of f1 was in the 1970s.............and my all time fav car is the jps lotus with the number 1....................the black and gold paint job..



as i recall these cars were driven by emerson fittipaldi and ronnie peterson.










Ronnie peterson was involved in a f1 crash in the late 1970s..........his life may have been saved,but emergency crew gave another driver involved in the collision priority,has ronnie only seemed to have leg injuries.....................he died later in hospital from marrow entering the bloodstream...........The other driver survived.

I'd like to see the current crop manhandle this round Monaco!!





Imagine the pit crew for this too

F1 LEGENDS













Ayrton senna 1960-1994

The crashes.

I almost got run over by Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal in 1979.
He was driving a Honda Accord at the time.
I cheered the next day when Alan Jones beat him to the checkered flag.

Here's a pic of a real Grand Prix Driver
I took this pic of pre-war Mercedes driver Hermann Lang at Laguna Seca in 1986. At age 77!
(And we complain about MGFs without power steering!)

some of the older cars were tricky to steer like this old mini.

driving a modern day f1 car can be challenging enough without having to worry about how to operate the steering wheel........which button is the horn?


heres the comparison early and late steering wheels

yes they would of sold more series one landrovers if she was in with the package of extras.

I have so little interest and knowledge about F1 that I was not even aware they had women drivers. I do recall the JPS Lotus cars from the mid 1970's but that is about it.
