You just nailed it.You can probably make a ton more money as a team, if you have a great female driver, but even that great driver would have to fight against tons of hungry young boys.
I guess every F1 team today would gladly hire a woman as a driver - if they could just find one capabable of either outdoing the drivers they have today or even if she just was able to equalize one of them.
Because it would give the team A LOT of money in both new sponsors and advertising.
CatsAreTheWorstDogs: Be aware that there have actually been 1 (one) female F1 driver able to score point in the F1 championship.
It was Lella Lombardi.
But her problem was that it was back in the 70ties and eventhough it was later shown that she had some pretty reasonable ideas to better the setup for the car then the team (March) just neglected her proposals - because she was just a woman.
