Sir Stirling Moss, who said that women don't have the mental aptitude to take part in F1, is from a different generation. There's no reason why women can't rise to the top in F1. If you're not good enough you don't survive.

I'm proud of my driver test. So many people were waiting for me to test and fail, so they could say that women would never be able to race in F1. I always view my time in F1 as before and after the test. Beforehand, I could sense everybody asking, ‘What's she doing in the F1 paddock? Is she good enough?' After my test, that attitude changed.

Motorsport has always been my passion, and speaking about being a female in a man's world is part of my responsibility.
