Supposedly there have actually been 5 female F1 drivers in history. There are currently a few female racers trying to break into F1 and I hope they do.But I wouldn't say they are being sexist - more unwilling to change. Unfortunately it happens in a lot of sport. Tennis being a good example - why are men's game 5 games and women's only 3? Women can last for 5 game matches as well
