Before the French Grand Prix, in celebration of Saudi women being able to drive, Aseel Al-Hamad drove a Formula One car around the race course. She had driven it once in private to make sure that she could. They are not that easy to drive. She is the first female member of the Saudi Arabian Motorsport Federation and on the Women in Motorsport Commission set up by Formula One. She is also the first woman to import a Ferrari into Saudi Arabia. She takes that car to tracks around the world to show on track days. I suspect that we will be seeing a lot more of her.
