    Yet she is. Maybe AM knows more about her than you.

      I’m sorry, but Calderon dominated the W-series, but did not get any resemblance of succes in F2 before that, and ended up 29th in IndyCar in 2022.

      Why do you think a driver who did not even finish high in the same W-series somehow has what it takes to make it in F1.

      I believe it was Tost who once said that F1 is by definition not discriminatory. Teams spend tens of millions to find fractions of a second per lap. If putting a woman behind the wheel would help, they would have done it in a heartbeat. And as soon as there is someone who is faster, F1 wants that person, regardless of gender or race or whatever.
