Women Racing This Week! 5/8-5/10
This is a huge weekend, clearly! It is hard to know where to even begin! As someone in the F1 Academy server said, "I love when motorsport is back in full swing". Let's look at formula racing first, where the coveted Italian F4 starts its highly anticipated season; it fields a handful of female drivers, there are two Norse-centric series going on with a large count of girls racing, and the all-female Kyojo Cup starts its season as well, joining the Porsche Carrera Cup at Fuji. Also, in the world of stock and endurance, Katherine Legge makes her sensational return to the NASCAR Cup at Watkins Glen series ahead of her return to the Brickyard later this May for the world-famous Indy 500. Also on the NASCAR Stock umbrella, Dystany Spurlock is pulling double duty at WG this weekend with an ARCA National appearance and making history as the first-ever Black Woman to debut in NASCAR Trucks
