I agree actually. I hope it improves in the future with the exposure that Suzie Woolf has given female in F1 in recent times. I don't think anyone is asking for the standard to be dropped to allow women to race in F1. My argument is F1 should wait for the right level of women to arrive into F1 in due course by leaving the door wide open. A female only series would certainly shut that door as who in their right mind would place a female only champion in an F1 seat where she would be battling with ferocious hardened male racers. It would take time, so the door should patiently be left ajar for when they arrive.
Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

I think the problem there is that merely waiting will not achieve anything. You'll be waiting forever. The female F1 winner will never come, unless more girls are encouraged to step onto the first rung of the ladder. Clearly the proposed women-only series cannot produce an F1 champion itself, but it can provide that encouragement.
