So I take it that most here would not be in favor of the idea floated by the racing blog writer, who suggested that each (male) driver should have to sit out one race each season. And in his place, each team would be mandated to insert a female driver in his place. So in a 20 race season, Hamilton would get 19 races and a (token) female would get one of his races. Same for all the others. The curious thing about this blog writer was that he/she(?) was very much against Ecclestone's separate series idea... calling it "sexist". But he/she came up with this affirmative action racing fluff. Unfortunately, I pulled this blog post up on my iPad and I can't locate it on my computer right now. Some ideas are so incredibly stupid that you hope it's being suggested in jest. I'm not familiar with this writer, so I don't know if that was the case or not.

I'm in favor of F1 getting the distribution of income right and/or increase the value/ROI of team sponsorships, so that smaller teams don't even have to hire (male) ride-buyers, much less be forced to employ people based on gender, or any other superficial factor. Once F1 stops being about watching the (for the most part) best racers in the world compete, I'll be happy to stop watching.
