You absolutely are spot on. Lewis continues to whine about whatever class of victim he announces for that day, when reality is that a woman who is competitive in F1 would have about 8 teams to choose from. Of course, if a woman was given vastly superior equipment to their competitors they may be competitive, it certainly worked for Lewis who has been an above average driver in the fastest car on the track.

Wow, you must have just arrived from the 18th century.

This is why none of the W series drivers ever progress into F2 or F1. It’s nothing personal, it just how we are built as humans. Even W series champion Jamie Chadwick recently admitted this in a GMM article (another GMM article that was conveniently not posted here [even though this site is a GMM aggregate] – along with Hamilton admitting he lied to the FIA about his jewelry to cause trouble). The closest the world of motorsports have ever gotten to having a female champion in any serious level of racing was Michelle Mouton coming in second place in the 1982 WRC championship, and years ago she also admitted women cannot compete with men in these competitions and it took everything she had to even come in second (and a lot of that was down to bad luck for her male competitors, other season results show this). She said women have a “maternal instinct” that prevents them from taking as many risks than men, which also shows in every other form of work and why women make less than men on average in most countries (work less dangerous jobs = make less money).

And if one really needs more examples of this, just read about when Serena and Venus Williams thought they were the best in the world and challenged Karsten Braasch (who was already age 31 and ranked 200 in the world). He easily beat both of them while drinking beer and smoking cigarettes while playing. Needless to say, they never challenged another pro male player to a game of tennis and now laugh about even trying, because even they have accepted logic.

Just get their rich parents to buy their way into F1. Just like Stroll and Latifi
