Stirling and the Ladies.

Stirling Moss says that women don’t have the mental toughness to be F1 motor racers. Whoops! Susie Wolff isn’t impressed.

Well, Stirling was one of the world’s great racing drivers, but he retired before political correctness was invented. In his day, beautiful women filled a similar role to that of decorative scarves – there to be hung around the neck with the dual purpose of keeping the driver warm and providing decoration.

In my experience, the toughest of women are at least as mentally tough as the toughest of men, if not more so. But then, my experience is considerably less extensive than Stirling’s.
