So for me, even though I'm not interested in sports, OP was correct.
I'm curious why I don't know any female race car drivers... the argument could be made that female athletes are not as physically strong so they aren't competitive in strength based sports, but it seems like anyone can drive a car fast? Who are the biggest female race car drivers?
Danica Patrick is one of the best-known women in motorsport.
