"Jessica Hawkins Breaks Barriers as First Female F1 Test Driver in Five Years"
British James Bond stunt driver Jessica Hawkins became the first woman in almost five years to test a modern Formula One car, completing 26 laps in Aston Martin's 2021 car in Budapest. While this is a significant step towards having a female star in Formula One, Susie Wolff, managing director of the F1 Academy, believes it will still take around a decade to see a female racer on the grid due to the tough competition and limited spots available.
