Formula 1 chief executive Stefano Domenicali doesn't believe the sport is ready to welcome women onto the grid anytime soon.
The prospect of a female driver in F1 is again being discussed as the sport promotes the W Series, an all-female competition that runs in conjunction with certain F1 grands prix. Lella Lombardi was the last woman to start an F1 race when she took part in the 1976 Austrian Grand Prix.
Susie Wolff —wife of Mercedes team principal Toto —most recently tested for Williams in 2014 and 2015, but women remain wildly underrepresented in the industry. Gender equality in sport has become an increasingly fervent topic in recent years, but Domenicali doesn't envision any imminent change.
