Happy International Women's Day! How do we find and develop the first female Formula 1 driver of the modern era? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Fran Longstaff, Head of Research at More Than Equal, alongside rising stars Ivonn, Skye, and Katrina, to break down the data, challenges, and real-world experiences shaping the future of women in motorsport. We explore what the research tells us about the barriers female drivers face, the path to F1, and what it takes to compete at the highest level. Plus, Ivonn, Skye, and Katrina share their journeys, biggest inspirations, and what it means to be part of this new generation of racers.
